Church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, Torrecilla
Cuenca Provincial Council (Diputación de Cuenca) considers the church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción in Torrecilla, Sotorribas, one of the province's finest 13th-century Romanesque churches. It stands alone on a hilltop, with a rubble-stone nave, a pointed doorway with archivolts, a low semicircular apse and the remains of a Romanesque window in the west wall.

It stands alone on a hilltop, overlooking the landscape of Torrecilla, in Sotorribas. It has a rectangular, fairly low nave of rubble stone with ashlar corners, a pointed-arched doorway with roll-moulded archivolts, and a squat semicircular apse with two windows. Half of a splayed Romanesque window remains in the west wall, later cut through by a Baroque oculus.
