Aguilar de Campoo

Aguilar de Campoo (Spanish pronunciation: [aɣiˈlaɾ ðe kamˈpo]) is a town and municipality of Spain located in the North of province of Palencia, autonomous community of Castile and León.

In May 1255 Alfonso X the Wise granted Aguilar a royal fuero,[4] and thus the town also became a realengo ('royal demesne').

[6] Gullón and Fontaneda opened biscuit factories in 1904 and 1913, respectively, and the town acquired a reputation as a renowned biscuit-making centre in Spain in the 20th century.

[7] In medieval times, Aguilar de Campoo was home to a Jewish community.
