Torremochuela is a municipality located in the province of Guadalajara, Castile-La Mancha, Spain. According to the 2013 census (INE), the municipality has a population of 11 inhabitants.

== History == By the mid-19th century, Torremochuela had a population of 124 inhabitants. It is described in the 15th volume of the "Diccionario geográfico-estadístico-histórico de España y sus posesiones de Ultramar" by Pascual Madoz as a municipality in the province of Guadalajara, within the judicial district of Molina de Aragón and the diocese of Sigüenza. Situated partly on a plain and partly on the slope of a hill, it enjoyed good ventilation and a healthy climate. The locality had 34 houses, a town hall with a jail, a primary school attended by about 40 pupils of both sexes, and a parish church dedicated to the Purification of Our Lady, served by a priest and a sacristan; a spring with good though somewhat heavy water lay outside the settlement.
