The best claim to visit Tronchón is in the Quixotic, which already names his famous cheeses. But also, in important crafts and a big activity existed past that there are left his traces in today calm streets, surrounded of palaces.
It is not possible to fix the date of which the cheese begun to be made of Tronchón.
What we know of true is a date in which the Tronchón cheese was famous in the whole Spain: the year 1.615. When 2 publishes part of "The Ingenious Nobleman Don Quijote of the Spot". This us affirms that immortal Don Miguel de Cervantes was expert of Tronchón cheese, he had eaten it and he liked of special form
I combine with the consideration of Good of Cultural Interest, his parochial church and the town hall have also the same one treatment.
The popular architecture invades the streets, appreciating examples much well preserved with an ashlar construction and tapial with big arcades of half a point and carpentry dyed with turned details and carved.
The south limit of the municipality is the Millstone Monchén, where from river is born Little doves and by means of which the population stocks up.
A trip of big landscape beauty is the track that he communicates with Villarluengo, which borders on the north Saw slope Little doves. In this track is the farmhouse Toast Piquer, a place of natural interest. The set of the term demonstrates areas deforestadas for the agricultural and cattle use. (ftes and text to see links)
