The Parish Church of Our Lady of the Elms, in Torre de Juan Abad (Ciudad Real), is one of the most emblematic churches in Campo de Montiel, with great historical and artistic value. It was built on the site of a small existing chapel in 1243, a work of the Order of Santiago, whose cross-sword can still be seen in the pediments. Declared a Site of Cultural Interest (BIC) in 2005.

Montiel Castle, also known as the Star Castle, is one of the most important historical sites in Castile-La Mancha. Built by the Arabs in the 9th century, under the name of Munt-Yil, it was part of the defense of the Islamic territory against the Christian advance. It was conquered by the Christians in 1227, after a long siege, and passed into the hands of the Order of Santiago, who made it the center of the Commandery of Campo de Montiel. The Tragedy of Montiel (1369) occurred here, where King Peter I of Castile was assassinated by his brother Henry of Trastámara, with Bertrand Duguesclin famously saying: "I neither remove nor appoint a king, but I help my lord." It is currently in a state of partial ruin, but excavations and guided tours are taking place.

Castle, church and beautiful setting in Riópar Viejo.

Spring source, beautiful spot with stunning views and cool water.

Small town nestled in the Madera River valley. Surrounded by an impressive riverside forest. It is worth stopping to visit it.

Port near the town of Riópar, the climb from there is harder than that from Batán del Puerto.

Beautiful mountain pass located after the town of Villaverde de Guadalimar. It is demanding and long. Now, it is worth getting to the top and enjoying the views.

This charming town is very popular among mountain lovers, since it is located in the natural park of Calares del Río Mundo and La Sima. The source of the Mundo River and the jets are two natural spectacles very close to this town that you cannot miss.
