Planning your visit

Albarracín is one of the most striking small towns in Spain — a walled medieval settlement of pink-ochre houses on a rock spur above a river gorge in the Aragonese highlands, with walls climbing the ridge above and a street plan essentially unchanged since the Middle Ages.

The Casa Museo Pérez y Toyuela is a seventeenth-century noble house preserved with its period furniture, paintings and domestic fittings, showing how the town's gentry lived. Its collection of old photographs documents Albarracín before the restoration campaigns that saved it — the town was in serious decline by the mid-twentieth century.

The building itself, with its timber galleries and thick walls, is characteristic of the local architecture that gives the town its coherence.

Albarracín sees day visitors but few overnight ones, and the evening after the coaches leave is the time to walk it.

Allow forty-five minutes. Bookable options combine the house with the monumental town circuit. Current availability is shown below.
