The Almodóvar del Campo Lagoon is a unique natural and geological feature located in the province of Ciudad Real, within the Campo de Calatrava region, famous for its volcanic landscapes. It is a lagoon formed in the crater of a volcano after a phreatomagmatic eruption (interaction between magma and groundwater). This type of lagoon is called a maar.

In the Alcudia Valley, we find the town of Almodóvar del Campo, built on the slopes of a volcano, so prevalent in the Campo de Calatrava region, whose crater is now a lagoon. The Moorish influence is the most emblematic of the town, leaving behind the memory of the Castle and, above all, the incomparable Parish Church of Our Lady of the Assumption. There, one can see the first videomapping projection in Spain permanently installed in an enclosed space, depicting the life and work of Saint John of Ávila.

Located at the foot of the Monumento al Minero, an imposing bronze sculpture by Pepe Noja that represents the city's mining history, it borders the volcanic area of Campo de Calatrava and is close to the Alcudia Valley. Mining activity is of particular importance with the Mining Museum, a building that surrounds an old headframe and simulates a coal selection workshop. On its two floors, the museum addresses the transformation of Puertollano into an industrial city due to the discovery of coal.
