Things to do in Castile-La Mancha, Castile-La Mancha: The Best Specialty Museums

March 3, 2022 Margarita Chappel

Castile-La Mancha, a Spanish land of craggy cliffs, golden fields and red soil, produces savory Manchego cheese, olives, saffron and more than its share of mystery. Chase the enduring legend of Don Quixote among the windmills of Campo de Criptana. Pass through the Bisagra Gate to experience the walled city of Toledo, a UNESCO World Heritage site that pays stylistic tribute to the Christian, Jewish and Islamic cultures. In Guadalajara, palaces and Baroque churches capture the imagination.

MQM Museo del Queso Manchego Toledo

Reviewed By Bob2020r - Sheffield, United Kingdom

For just a few euros, you are able to enjoy a visit to the cheese museum (a few small rooms with nice little exhibits about cheesemaking tradition), and then enjoy a glass of wine with a tasting of different manchego cheeses. We had three different manchegos to try (3 months, 6 months and 12 months) with the strength increasing, and then a pasteurised one, plus a smooth one on some toast; all served with some biscuits to clear the palette between tastings. The lady gave us a very nice explanation of what the cheeses were and how to go about the tasting to be able to pick out the flavours. She couldn't have been nicer and the environment to taste in was very relaxed and clean. There is also a great shop so you can buy cheese or other delicacies to take home. We spent an hour there and all absolutely loved it. Well worth a visit and totally deserving of its 5 star rating

To see this wonderful collection of tapestries it is essential to make a trip to Pastrana, I have not seen anything like it in my trips to the preserved bine that are after five centuries, how great they are, all the details they have, one can spend hours recreating in them, it seems that you are seeing a painting instead of a tapestry because of the color they have, they also narrate a historical fact the Portuguese conquest of two cities in North Africa, if you choose a guided tour while admiring the tapestries, you receive a history class from the late fifteenth century, annex to the tapestry museum the crypt of the parish church as well as the collection of goldsmith carvings that they have in their sacristy deserve also a time for their enjoyment and contemplation, especially the sculptures of the famous wood sculptor Alonso Cano

Museo Fundacion Antonio Perez

Reviewed By tmhome100 - El Casar, Spain

A very nice art museum that begs the question, "What Is Art?" You'll find all sorts of examples of modern art located within an absolutely beautiful building with an amazing view. Sculpture, paintings, objects, fabrics, and more that push the boundaries. The collection deserves a look if you have the time. We can highly recommend. Young children may not appreciate it, but if you have children that are interested in art, this will get a reaction from them!
