Key Facts

Cuenca is a province located in the autonomous community of Castilla-La Mancha in central Spain. Situated in the eastern part of the region, it occupies a strategic position between the Meseta Central plateau and the eastern mountain ranges. The province covers approximately 17,141 square kilometers, making it one of the larger provinces in Spain, yet it has a relatively modest population of around 195,000 inhabitants, resulting in low population density. Cuenca is administratively divided into 238 municipalities, with the city of Cuenca serving as both the provincial capital and the most populous urban center. The province's geography is characterized by dramatic contrasts, featuring the rugged Serranía de Cuenca mountains in the north, the fertile La Mancha plains in the south, and the deep gorges carved by rivers like the Júcar and Huécar. This diverse landscape supports varied economic activities including agriculture, forestry, and growing tourism centered around the historic city of Cuenca, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its hanging houses.
