Where is Tobillas?
Tobillas is nestled in a beautiful part of Spain. It is about 51 kilometers (that's around 32 miles) west of a bigger city called Vitoria-Gasteiz. This small community sits at an elevation of 645 meters (about 2,116 feet) above sea level. This means it is quite high up, often surrounded by hills or mountains.
What is a Council?
In Spain, especially in areas like Álava, a "council" (or concejo in Spanish) is a type of small local government. It is like a tiny town or village that has some power to manage its own affairs. Even though Tobillas is small, it still has its own council to help run things for its residents.
