Its houses of stone, adobe and oak wood from the pasture, have hardly suffered any changes in its structure since its construction, which gives La Hiruela its own architectural identity that places it as one of the best preserved villages in the region of Madrid. Some of the buildings and traditional elements protected are the pylon, the flour mill on the banks of the Jarama River, the Town Hall and the old school, the latter now transformed into a social bar, the Casa del Cura and the Casa de la Maestra.
