Huéscar

When the Iberian Peninsula was conquered by Rome, Osca was a town of the Turdetani, and incorporated into the Roman province of Hispania Baetica.

[3] When Spain allied with the United Kingdom against Napoleon during the Peninsular War, Spanish troops in French-aligned Denmark–Norway suddenly found themselves in enemy territory.

[6] Some representatives of Denmark attended wearing Viking costumes, while Spaniards erected signs in Danish jokingly warning against entering enemy territory.

[7][8] The main landmark is the collegiate church of Santa María la Mayor (St Mary the Great), designed by Diego de Siloé in the 16th century.

The Geopark has promoted Huéscar in the context of geotourism as the start and finish of a 143 km trekking route, the "First Settlers Great Path".
