Quintanilla de las Torres is a town and also a hamlet of the municipality of Pomar de Valdivia in the autonomous community of Castile and León, in the province of Palencia, Spain.
Nestled in a hollow formed by the groove through which the river Camesa flows, at 910 meters above sea level, 7 km from Pomar,[1] and 5 km from Aguilar de Campoo. On the P-630 regional road with access from the N-611, parallel to the A-67 highway, it has a halt on the Palencia-Santander railroad line, remodeled by Adif.[2]
History
At the fall of the Ancien Régime, the town became a constitutional municipality[3] and in the 1842 census it had 7 households and 36 residents, to later[4] become part of Villarén de Valdivia.
