Formentera del Segura –Originally a Moorish village, Formentera del Segura was conquered by the Christian king Jaime I (‘The Conquistador’) in 1242, the village changed hands a number of times over the prevailing centuries until 1730 when it came under control of Nicolas Pérez de Sarrio (The Lord of Formentera), who gave the village its current name. Largely destroyed by the great earthquake of 1829, Formentera del Segura was re-built by 1840 culminating in the building of the parish church. Relying mostly on agriculture and citrus farming for its survival Formentera del Segura benefits from an irrigation system put into place by the Moors centuries ago. One of its most popular fiestas is ‘The Day of the Bicycle’ featuring a race involving many of its inhabitants. Formentera is aprox 7 minutes from the beaches of Guardamar or 3 minutes via the fast duel carridgway
DoloresWhen the War of Spanish Succession between the Bourbons and the Austrian Habsburgs divided Spain the Cardinal of Cartagena-Murcia, Luis Antonio de Belluga y Moncada, sided with the Bourbons. After their victory Felipe V granted the cardinal the title of 'Field Marshall' of Valencia. The Cardinal had a grand project to drain the marshy land of the Vega Baja and use it for farming - the rent obtained from this land would then be donated to charitable works. Several villages were founded on this land, Dolores being one of these. Dolores is essentially an agricultural village dedicated to growing fruit and vegetables, especially artichokes, and raising cattle. The largest cattle fair in the province is held on the 1st Sunday of August. The village also manufactures footwear
