Villanueva del Rey

Villanueva del Rey is a municipality of mining origins, and this past is still present in both its heritage and its landscape. Old industrial facilities and a simple urban fabric explain its development linked to the extraction of resources.

The natural environment shows a progressive recovery, with Mediterranean vegetation returning to occupy previously exploited areas. This process is part of the current identity of the municipality.

Villanueva del Rey offers a clear reading of the adaptation of a town after the decline of its main activity.
