After the walk, what better way to end the visit to Villanueva de los Infantes than with some Coca-Colas, some cold beers and some tapas in a typical local bar right in the Plaza Mayor, as its name suggests.

On one side is the Church of Santo Domingo, built in the 17th century following the principles of the Counter-Reformation. Highlights include the main altar with its Baroque altarpiece featuring Solomonic columns. Above it are interesting frescoes depicting Saint Dominic. Among the side chapels, the Chapel of Souls, founded by the Ballesteros family, the Chapel of Ecce Homo, commissioned by the Duke of San Fernando, and the Chapel of Our Lady of the Rosary, commissioned by the Bustos family, are particularly noteworthy. However, the most visited site is the convent, or rather, the cell where Francisco de Quevedo died in 1645. Quevedo's cell, open to the public, is the exact spot where the writer passed away shortly after arriving in Villanueva, already very ill. Following the confiscation of church property in 1844, the convent was closed, and today part of the building houses cultural events and a hotel. The opening hours and admission prices are as follows: Opening Hours: Monday from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Closed Tuesdays. Wednesday to Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Admission: €2 (Reduced: €1).

The Plaza Mayor is Neoclassical in style and a key element of the urban design, housing the main political and religious institutions. The Church of San Andrés is notable for its Neoclassical façade, featuring a deep semicircular arch, an image of Saint Andrew, and the coat of arms of the Habsburgs. Inside, the Chapel of the Busts is preserved, in whose crypt Francisco de Quevedo was buried. Visiting hours and prices are: Hours: Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Admission: General €2 (Reduced €1).

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.

It is located in La Carrasca, about 14 km north of Villahermosa. According to tradition, the Virgin Mary appeared to a shepherd named Juan Cortés on top of an oak tree, from which the name of the sanctuary comes. A hermitage was built on the site of the apparition, which over time became the current sanctuary.

Immense main square found in this town with arches on both sides of the square (porticoed area) where there is always neighborhood activity!

Beautiful convent that is in the middle of the town of Vilanueva de los Infantes and that is not only recognized for its ecclesiastical importance but is also the place where Francisco de Quevedo spent the last years of his life locked up.

At this point in the town of Almedina there is a small viewpoint between the houses that lets us see the valley created by the Río Guadalén in its passage through the south of the town.
