Church of the Immaculate Conception, Bustarviejo

Highlight • Religious Site

The Church of the Immaculate Conception is, without a doubt, from a historical and artistic point of view, the most outstanding building in Bustarviejo's cultural heritage.

The comprehensive restoration work carried out on the church in Bustarviejo between 2006 and 2009, financed by the Community of Madrid, reveals the great antiquity of this cultural landmark. Architecturally, the interior has a Latin cross floor plan and three naves separated by semicircular arches, with a large triumphal arch separating the transept from the central nave. This arch rests on the church's only column and a large rectangular pillar. The rear façade features a large apse that projects from the rest of the building.

The tower, dating from the late 15th or early 16th century and considered the oldest element of the building, has a square floor plan. It is constructed of irregular masonry with ashlar at the corners and rests on a masonry base. The atrium features a series of seven smooth-shafted columns joined by a wooden architrave built in the early 17th century (1600-1617).

The archaeological excavation revealed a medieval rock-cut necropolis with rectangular and ovoid pits carved into the rock and covered with granite slabs, as well as an anthropomorphic sarcophagus. In addition, the remains of medieval mural paintings were discovered, of great interest due to their subject matter and age (14th century).

Viewpoints of Sierra de la Cabrera

Highlight • Viewpoint

Along our way through the Cañada Real Segoviana near the Sierra de la Cabrera, we began to see it with the Cancho Gordo as a presentation. This track is very beautiful in spring or after a few days of rain, when everything is green.

Canencia Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The port of Canencia is one of the most pleasant to climb in the Sierra de Guadarrama. On any of its slopes, both from Miraflores de la Sierra and from the town of Canencia, the slopes are not too steep and the landscape is incredible.
