The fulling mill of Don Quixote

Curiosity · Fuencaliente, Sierra Morena, Ciudad Real

Image of Fuencaliente, not of the place itself.

Local tradition places the adventure of the fulling mills that Cervantes recounts in the first part of Don Quixote in the area of the River Cereceda, beside the old fulling mills. The place name La Batanera preserves the memory of that activity.
