Walking through its streets we will discover the town where Pedro Almodóvar spent his childhood. Just behind the park that bears his name is the old factory of the well-known Glue Imedio which, curiously, is also related to the cinema. In the 1930s, Gregorio Imedio ran the Cine Imedio, as celluloid usually broke due to use, Gregorio repaired the rolls at his parents' drugstore and that's how he discovered Imedio glue.
The current theater is located in what was the old summer cinema, where from the wall of his aunt's house, Almodóvar watched the first films of his childhood.
From a geological point of view, Calzada de Calatrava has numerous volcanic outcrops.
