The Baroque Jewel of Caudiel: Beyond Cherries and Honey
Overview of the tour in Caudiel
The Castilian municipality of Caudiel, in the Alto Palancia, despite being very busy for those who go to Montanejos, arriving comfortably on the C-5 commuter line from Valencia, or cycling along the Via Verde de Ojos Negros, is one of those where few stop to learn about its heritage and history. How wrong they are.
And the fact is that the town has one of those jewels rarely known, as is the Camarín de la Virgen Perdido, inside the parish church, once a convent of Augustinians. The spectacular decoration, which becomes overwhelming, has been vetoed until a few years ago, and now there is the possibility of knowing it, in addition to its other charms. The visit in principle is only to the church and chapel, but if you prefer, you can extend to the rest of the village and know his hermitage of San Roque, Lavaderos, alleys and fountains, the total duration being about 2.5 hours.
To do this you only have to deviate a few kilometers from the A-23 if you are coming from the Mediterranean to or from Aragon, or move a few kilometers if you are in nearby towns such as Sagunto, Segorbe, Vall de Uxó, Montanejos, Jérica, Rubielos de Mora or Mora de Rubielos.

Our Guides
On arrival
You will find us in the garden in front of the church (in the street map, Plaza de la Virgen, 4), near the access door to the entrance courtyard of the temple.
You can park next to the Patos fountain in front of it, or on the street that goes down to El Barrio, passing between the church and the convent.
Things to note
In addition to the voluntary payment to the guide, you must leave a donation of at least 1 € to collaborate with the cost of lighting and maintenance of the parish.
A free tour is NOT a FREE tour, but a guided tour for free payment. At the end of the visit, each client decides how much he/she wants to pay for the visit. The recommended average is usually between 5 and 20 euros for a visit of 1 to 3 hours. Unless they have done very badly, it is advisable to respect the work and time of the guides.
