The silos of Villacañas are underground structures widely used as regular housing until the mid-20th century. The use of this type of housing in Villacañas dates back to the 17th century. Its construction continued until the end of the first half of the 20th century, and at that time, the silo was already a characteristic form of housing for the town's humble families. This silo, in particular, is located in the El Monte area, since in addition to the town itself, this type of construction can be found in the countryside as a dwelling for families who worked as laborers in the fields during the long harvest and work periods.
