Windmills, like El Cubo, have been a hallmark of the region for centuries. Although their use today is not as widespread as in the past, they remain a reminder of traditional wind energy and engineering. The source of energy in a windmill is the wind itself, and it is used to grind grain, pump water, and perform other tasks.

If you ever visit Cuéllar, don't hesitate to explore this historic mill and take in its beauty and functionality. 🌬️🏰

One of the southwest entrances to the town of Cuéllar is one of the walls with what is called the Molino de viento and which can be seen when entering the center itself.
