History & geography

History

The name Benimarfull, of Arabic origin, means "son of the bitter fountain." In the mid-13th century, the place was conquered from the Muslims by James I of Aragon and incorporated into the Kingdom of Valencia. From the mid-15th century, it became part of the lordship of Guadalest. In 1574, the Patriarch Juan de Ribera ordered the creation of the Morisco restoration of Benimarfull-Benillup, the document of creation in which contains the first appearance of the name "Benimarfull."

Geography

It is located on the CV-700 roadway that runs between Alfafara, Pego, and Vergel, crossing the entire Gallinera Valley, the valley of cherries. The town is crossed by the Sofre, Benimarfull, and Albacar ravines, and all tributaries of the Serpis river. Its municipal area borders with those of Alcocer de Planes, Almudaina, Benillup, Cocentaina, Muro de Alcoy and Planes.
