Cogolludo is a municipality located in the province of Guadalajara, Castile-La Mancha, Spain. It forms part of the comarca of La Serranía and was the manorial home of the Dukes of Medinaceli. In 2015, it had a population of 600 inhabitants. The historic Church of Santa María stands in the town.
==Name and symbols== Its original name was Cugullent, from the Latin cucullus, which means "cap." This alludes to its location on a hill and to the crowding of its houses that mimics the appearance of a pineapple or bud. "Bud" would come to mean, according to other authors, "mound with a steep slope."
