Ocaña stands on the plateau in its own territory, La Mesa de Ocaña, which elevates it with landscapes, monuments, culture and history. Portico de la Mancha, its urban fabric treasures religious and civil legacies. Nuestra Señora de la Asunción and San Juan Bautista guard most of the images and brotherhoods that give reputation to its famous Holy Week, a Festival of National Tourist Interest. For more than 400 years, from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday, order and silence have accompanied the majestic processions that take to the streets, made up of ten Brotherhoods and Confraternities, some of which date back to the 16th century, XVII and XVIII, with a total of 2,000 brothers.

Civil works are scattered among its streets and exalt the importance that the activity of the town gave them at the time. Its monumental Plaza Mayor is a regular Plaza-cloister, with a closed structure and a vaulted architectural system. The main façade corresponds to the Town Hall Houses, at whose main door you can see the arms of the Villa. The construction works began in the last third of the 18th century, the first phase being completed in 1791 under the reign of Carlos IV.

Another interesting visit is the Palace of Cárdenas, an Asset of Cultural Interest from the 15th-16th century, it was ordered built by Don Gutierre de Cárdenas from Ocaño, Knight of Santiago, Commander of León and Maestresala of Queen Isabella I, the Catholic.
