Sojuela (Spanish pronunciation: [soˈxwela]) is a municipality of the autonomous community of La Rioja, Spain. It is located near the capital, Logroño. Its population in December 2022 was 570 inhabitants[2] over a 15.15 square kilometre area. It is the first municipality in La Rioja to host a co-living space.
History
Sojuela is made up of two sections. There is lots of new housing centred around the golf course, and there is the Pueblo traditionale, which has approximately 36 permanent residents. The village has a bar which is very lively, next to the ayuntamiento. It is in the heart of the wine growing area and boasts two bodegas. More than half of the varieties of the butterflies of Spain can be found in the environs of the village. The Co-living also runs Erasmus programmes.
Lordship of Sojuela
Sojuela was once a historical Lordship. In the 17th century it was owned by the Chaplain and Priest Don Diego Fernández de Medrano y Zenizeros, Lord and divisero of the Villa and Solar of Valdeosera, and of the town of Sojuela. He was also an author, knight in the Order of Santiago, owner of the House and Torre de La Vega and the Palace of Entrena, Commissioner of Spanish Infantry and Alcaide of the Castles of Villarejo de Salvanés and Fuentidueña (Guadalajara), which belong to the Order of Santiago.[3]
Location
The village is at the foot of Moncalvillo and there are several walking trails in the area.
Transportation
On weekdays, five buses run in each direction, which includes going round the valley of which Sojuela is part, to Logroño. No buses run on Sunday and one bus in each direction runs on Saturday. Additionally, there are buses that run from Entrena which is a 45-minute walk.
