Cuenca

The 17^th European School on Molecular Nanoscience (ESMolNa2024) and the 10^th Workshop on 2D Materials (W2DM2024) will take place in Cuenca. The town of Cuenca is located in the interior of Spain, in the northeast of the Castile-La Mancha region.

The most outstanding feature of the city is its beauty that arises, on the one hand, from the harmony between nature and architectural space and, on the other hand, from its long historical trajectory that has left us an important cultural and monumental legacy.

On 1996 Cuenca was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO thanks to the excellent preservation of its original urban landscape, medieval fortress and its rich collection of civil and religious architecture from the twelfth to the eighteenth centuries. In addition, the city has an exceptional personality as it is perfectly integrated into the wonderful natural landscape that surrounds it.
