Ciudad Real, located in the heart of Castilla-La Mancha, is a city with a rich historical and cultural heritage that reflects the spirit of central Spain’s plateau. Founded in the 13th century by King Alfonso X "The Wise", Ciudad Real grew as an important stronghold during the Reconquista. One of its most iconic monuments is the imposing Cathedral of Nuestra Señora del Prado, whose construction began in the 15th century and showcases a blend of architectural styles, ranging from Gothic to Renaissance.
The city is also home to the Museum of Don Quixote, a tribute to the literary legacy of the region, particularly Miguel de Cervantes’ masterpiece, Don Quixote de la Mancha, set in the vast La Mancha plains surrounding the city.
The old city walls, along with the Puerta de Toledo, one of the few remaining gates, evoke Ciudad Real’s medieval past. Visitors can also enjoy its vibrant local cuisine, with typical Manchego products such as cheese, wine, and olive oil taking centre stage. A stroll through the city allows you to experience its calm atmosphere and the hospitality of its people.
