Alarcón is a Spanish little in the province of Cuenca, in the autonomous community of Castilla-La Mancha. It has a population of 152 inhabitants.It is of cultural interest, as a historical-artistic complex.

Located 87 km south of Cuenca, it has an area of 120 km² and an altitude of 831 m. Its term is watered by the Júcar river that forms the reservoir known as the Alarcón swamp.

The castle preserves part of its Muslim feel but its subsequent refurbishments are filled with medieval elements which corrected its structure after the conquest. Amongst its towers and defences, the keep stands out. This is present from any corner of the area and unquestionably tops off the picture-postcard. The castle, which has now become a Parador hotel, provides us lodgings and it is the tranquillity that we need so as not to miss out on any of its features, nor those in the rest of the community and the displays of history imprinted on its streets, churches, towers and museums.
