The ancient way of life of the peasants is reflected in the constructions of the popular architecture of Montamarta.
The use of mud predominates, building thick walls with adobe and rammed earth, placed on a base of the beautiful stones that predominate in the area.
Wood and iron have an aesthetic note in the doors with striking locks, knockers or knockers, and in the latticed windows.
The shutter leads to a wide doorway that gives access to several entrance doors. They usually have an interior cellar where wine and foodstuffs were kept.
The agricultural outbuildings were concentrated around the corral, with the livestock stables close to the dwelling.
