Villalpardo

Villalpardo is a municipality located in the province of Cuenca, in the autonomous community of Castile-La Mancha, Spain. Situated in the comarca of La Manchuela, the village lies at an altitude of approximately 920 meters above sea level. The population, as of recent estimates, is relatively small, reflecting the trend of rural depopulation in Spain.

Historically, Villalpardo has its roots in agriculture, primarily the cultivation of olives, grapes, and cereals. The local economy continues to be largely dependent on these activities, although there is some limited tourism attracted by the surrounding natural landscapes and traditional architecture.

Notable features of Villalpardo include its parish church, often dedicated to local saints, and remnants of traditional rural architecture, such as farmhouses and agricultural buildings. The village participates in local festivals and traditions that are characteristic of the La Manchuela region.
