Old Navaleno station
In the past, this building was part of the railway infrastructure of the line connecting Calatayud with Cidad Dosante, in Burgos. This line was conceived as part of a wider connection intended to link the ports of Santander and Sagunto. The ambitious project took was first undertaken the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but was abandoned and definitively closed down in January 1985.
In 1920, the provincial councils of Burgos, Santander, Soria and Zaragoza supported the construction of the central sections of the Santander-Mediterranean railway. The section between Calatayud and Cidade-Dosante was completed in 1930. However, the connection to Santander was never completed, with the final 35 km remaining incomplete.
Once the railway was closed, some buildings were leased to municipalities or private individuals, while others were abandoned to their fate. However, Navaleno station, which once housed a passenger terminal and cargo dock, has been given a new lease of life thanks to its redevelopment as a rural house where guests can enjoy the incomparable natural environment surrounding the station. During the summer months, it is not unusual to see large numbers of children and teenagers around, as this old station is used as accommodation for summer camps organised in the area.
