Murillo el Cuende is a municipality in Navarre made up of three council districts: Murillo el Cuende, Rada and Traibuenas, each with its own identity and history intertwined with the development of the territory.<\/p>\n
Geographically speaking, the municipal district is crossed by the Cidacos<\/strong> and Arag\u00f3n rivers<\/strong> and has areas of natural interest, such as the Rada Lagoon<\/strong> and around the Rada Viejo<\/strong> uninhabited town, from where spectacular views can be enjoyed towards the Bardenas Reales<\/strong> badlands and the Sierra de Uju\u00e9\/Uxue mountain range. The countryside is a patchwork of river terraces, arable land and clumps of Mediterranean vegetation. <\/p>\n Historically, Murillo el Cuende and its council districts were linked to ecclesiastical and noble seigniories. Rada Viejo<\/strong>, for example, was an important medieval defensive position, with a castle, church and walled precinct, which was razed during the Navarrese civil war in the 15th century. The current council district of Rada<\/strong> was created in 1972, and Traibuenas<\/strong>, which became part of the municipality in 1845, also has traces of its noble past. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Murillo el Cuende is a municipality in Navarre made up of three council districts: Murillo el Cuende, Rada and Traibuenas, each with its own identity and history intertwined with the development of the territory.
