The Hermitage of Santa Rita in Mota del Cuervo is a relatively modern building, constructed in the 1950s. It stands in the town center, overlooking the square that bears its name. The hermitage is notable for its stone bell gable, which contrasts with the white plaster of its ground floor. The structure has a hall-like layout and a wooden roof. The main entrance is a semicircular arch preceded by a portico with three arches, the central one being wider than the side ones.

The statue of Don Quixote and Dulcinea in El Toboso is one of the town's most emblematic monuments, deeply linked to the Cervantes universe.

Unfortunately, nowadays they are often only monuments to a long tradition of craftsmanship: the heavy millstones were moved using the power of the wind alone to grind grains into flour (grain mills) or press oil from olives (oil mills). Sometimes - although rarely - the windmills also had the function of a pumping station and transported water to a higher level. But Miguel de CERVANTES (1547 to 1616) also created a literary monument to the technical monument of the mills: the most famous figure of the author, who is considered Spain's national poet and whose work can certainly be valued as world literature: "Don QUIXOTE", also known as the "Knight of the Sorrowful Countenance" and always accompanied by his loyal squire Sancho Panza, fights a - of course hopeless - battle against windmills in one of the fictional stories, in which he believes he recognizes four-armed giants.

This mountain where the Mota del Cuervo mills are located is known by the name "Balcón de La Mancha", as it has fabulous views wherever you look.

The Renaissance-style hermitage built in the 16th century is located on top of the hill. Inside, you can visit the image of the Virgen de Criptana, patron saint of the town.
