The History of Jérica,a SynopsisAlthough Jérica�s origins begin during the later period of theStone Age (The Neolithic Period), it�s during the Iberian periodthat we begin to know things with certainty; we have knowledgeof these things because of the discoveries made in the towncentre and the area around it.The Roman period was one of the most magnificent periodsof our village�s history; in fact you can visit the public museumand see its great Epigraphic collection.During the Moslem era, specifically in the XII century ourvillage was named Sharíqua, as well as Qala'at al-ash-raf or(translated to) Jarife�s Castle.�El Cid� conquered Jerica in 1098, and later in 1235 King JaimeI also conquers our village.With the death of Queen Violante, King Jaime I of Aragonpromised marriage to Dª Teresa Gil de Vidaurre (Vidaura) withwhom he was courting. On May 9

th, 1255 the King gave Teresa

and any possible future children from the marriage, Jérica�scastle including all of its possessions, creating The Manor ofJerica. The king never married Teresa and never recognized heras his wife or his Queen, but he established titles for his sonsJaime de Jerica and Pedro de Ayerbe, so that they could succeedto the throne.In 1369 Alfonso de Jérica died without issue. Our village returnedto the Kingdom of Aragon. In 1372 Price Martin was conferredas the new Earl of Jérica. This was a new Earldom.In 1431, Prince Juan sold the Earldom illegally to FranciscoZarzuela this was a bad time for the population of Jerica, theysuffered under this tyrannical government.In 1479 the people of Jérica held talks with Fernando de Aragonand achieved the return to his Kingdom.In 1537, after a few years of prosperity our village was donatedto the Duke of Calabria by Carlos I. When de Duke died, ourvillage was donated to the Monks of San Miguel de los Reyes.

In 1564 our village was finally returned again to Aragon�sKingdom. In 1565, our people renouncedthe Aragon Regional Law Code, and accepted those of Valencia�sKingdom. Between 1570 and 1619 two communities of Monksbecame established in our village: they were The Agustinos andThe Capuchinos.Our Village�s tower named �Torre de la Alcudia� it is a work ofMudejar Art, it was finished in 1622. At the end of The Carlist�swar, Manuel Pavia received the title �Marquis of Novaliches�.

Ayuntamiento

de Jérica1. - The �Homage Tower�

Known as (La Torreta). It�s a square construction of ashlars.

In its entrance you can find a medieval arch. It seems that

years ago there was an upper floor.

2. - Castle�s Enclosure.

This enclosure is situated in the upper side of our village.

We�ve found there many Roman and Iberian ceramic

remains. The Castle�s enclosure is full of Middle Age

constructions, fortifications and a church.

3. - Hermitage of �San Roque�.

The last line of the castle construction encloses the actual

Hermitage of �San Roque� (previously named Santa

Agueda �La Antigua�). The tower that remains on its base

is part of the ancient Arab Castle. The construction of

this hermitage started with the Christian Reconquer. We

can see two styles in it, Initial Gothic and Reconquer

Gothic. This hermitage is very important because it is the

transition between the Arab Art and the Gothic Art.

4. - Alcudia Tower.

This tower with its bells is the symbol of our village. On

August 24th

, 1614, the Town Council decided the need

of changing the bells of the old church tower to the Alcudia

tower, so all the people in the village could hear them

better. On December 23, 1622 was finished the work of

the new bells on the �Alcudia Tower�. The construction

has got three octagonal bodies. The first body is supposedly

Roman, and since 713 it is known as "Torre de la Alcudia�.

Actually this first body is divided in four rooms with access

by the main stairs. The first body has its own access and

communicates by the main stairs to the second body. The

second body is divided in two rooms. One is for the tower

clock and the other room contains the bells. It is not only

unique in its class by the Valencian country, it is also one

of the last of this art and, above all, it was not planned

or carried out by Mudejar or Moorish.

5. � San Roque�s Wicket Gate

Sited in the second belt of the village wall, it�s better

known as �Muralla de Media Villa". This belt was built

in the XIV century.

6. - La Sala�s Doorway

The access to a squared construction, that was probably

the place where (the city council)�Concejo de la Villa�

met in the past.

7. - San Juan�s Doorway

Known as �Torre del Reloj" A circular construction, at

other times of the population bell before the building of

the Mudejar Tower.

10. - Church of the Socós� Monastery

The �Socós� Augustinian Monastery was built in the XVII

century outside the village wall. The church is the only

building remaining of this Monastery, which was looted

and partially destroyed in the Civil War. It was restored

in 2007 and it is currently the Socio-Cultural Center "El

Socós�.

11. - San Joaquin and Santa Ana�s Doorway

Belonging to the third ring of the village wall, long ago

known as "Portal de Teruel", it�s an ancient village doorway.

14. - Arch of the �Rocha del Hospital�

Its name is due to its location beside the village�s ancient

hospital. This ancient Arch was seriously spoiled because

of the need of space for the new street near it.

15. - The Blood of Christ�s Church

In the past called �De San Jorge�. This construction was

probably built in the Middle Ages and reformed in the

XVII century to Baroque style. It houses the image of the

village�s Pattern, �El Cristo de la Sangre�. Its ground plant

presents a single nave with four sections. The High Altar

is later reform in neoclassical style. The bell is Mudejar

style.

17. �Santa Agueda�s Church

Martin The Human's Ancient Palace House. Originally

built in Gothic style, and reformed in the XVIII century

in Baroque style.

It�s got five sections and the central nave with side chapels

open on both sides. The Chapel of the Holy Communion

(mid-eighteenth century) is located at the beginning of

the central nave. The High Altar we see today is a copy

made by �Devastated Regions� at the end of the Civil

War. The decoration of the vault that closes this section

is the original from the Baroque reform. The facade of

this church is dated in 1749.

26.- Nuestra Señora del Loreto�s Chapel

It�s a small chapel that in the seventeenth century was

part of a hospital.

In addition to this list of places and monuments of the

village, there are many others very important, as Santa

Agueda's fountain, 1770 and La Purísima (on the top of

Plaza Hno. Mariano Rodríguez) or La Cruz Cubierta,

from the XV century, and Bishop Muñatones Bridge,

located on the outskirts of Jérica, in the old Camino Real.

We also want to emphasize El Paseo de las Fuentes, where

you can go for a pick-nick by the trees shades, or in the

restaurant area and drink water from fountains such as

Randurías.

Next to the park, there is a sports center with swimming

pools , racquetbal l court and footbal l f ie ld.

On the other hand, we can approach Regajo Swamp,

hiking or cycling by its paths, without forgetting La Via

Verde de Ojos Neros.
