Campo de Criptana's windmills

108 km from the hotel
Campo de Criptana's windmills are part of the imagery of La Mancha and Spain, immortalised by the writer Miguel de Cervantes, who transformed them into ferocious giants in the pages of Don Quixote. The collection, a classified Site of Cultural Interest, is made up of 10 windmills, three of which – Infante, Sardinero and Burleta – date back to the 16th century. Their circular whitewashed towers and impressive blades, which still turn with the wind, depict one of the most typical images of the landscape of La Mancha. Make sure you visit them!
