Introduction

Consuegra is a place with a long history, and its windmills are the scene of Don Quixote's battle in the novel by Cervantes. The twelve windmills and a reconstructed castle are arranged in a spectacular straight line on the ridge. The first windmill can be visited by tourists to explore its interior structure and buy souvenirs. In addition, the saffron festival at the end of October each year is one of the most prominent festivals in Consuegra, where the locals celebrate the harvest of saffron by turning one or more windmills. Visiting the interior of the windmills requires a ticket, but it is affordable. In short, Consuegra is not only a treasure trove of history and culture, but also a rural tourist destination that is worth a visit.
