The Legion Brigade has simulated towns in both Ronda (M\u00e1laga) and Viator (Almer\u00eda) to carry out its exercises on a regular basis, but this week the 3rd Company of the X Flag \"Mill\u00e1n Astray\"<\/strong> of the Tercio \"Alejandro Farnesio\" 4th of the Legion, based in Ronda, has traveled to the abandoned town of Minas de Alquife<\/strong>, also known as Minas del Marquesado, in the province of Granada, to an Alpha exercise<\/strong>, that is, a tactical subgroup at the level of the aforementioned Company, with support from the 4th Services Company.<\/p>\n

The mining town of Minas del Marquesado was built in 1956<\/strong> to house the workers of the Minas de Alquife iron deposit. After the closure of the mines in 1996, this town was practically abandoned.<\/strong> The channel CharryTV Ronda<\/a> has published this video by Felipe Passolas (from OFAtV <\/a>) showing images of this exercise:<\/p>\n
