Within the Campo de Calatrava region, this municipality attracts the visitor's attention because it is close to two salty lagoons of volcanic origin, Argamasilla and Inesperada; formerly used as medicinal waters. Like other thermal springs where the Infante Don Carlos ordered the construction of the Baños de Fuensanta. In addition to its natural assets, the religious ones are important, in the form of a church and a sanctuary that we must not miss.
Its 17th century church dedicated to Saint John the Baptist was declared a B.I.C. in 1989. Its nave is covered by a barrel vault and has a polygonal apse and two doorways under porticoes, one of them with Tiara Papal. It is one of the few churches that preserves its three original altarpieces from the 18th century, the most important being that of the High Altar made of walnut wood without polychrome and with allegories of the Trinity. In the Sanctuary of Nuestra Señora de los Santos we can also admire a beautiful altarpiece in Churrigueresque forms. The sanctuary is on the outskirts of the town and was built on an old Arab fortress. It has a single nave in which we will see wall paintings and a beautiful Mudejar coffered ceiling.
