WHAT WE’LL SEE SEE

Inns are typical of La Mancha from the Roman period, when they were places of rest and provisioning. Then, they started to be used as hostels in the 15th century. These places are internationally famous thanks to literature, Cervantes literature in particular. La Inés Inn owes its name to her owner in 1761, Inés Ruíz Castellanos. There are different buildings: stables, an outdoor kitchen, the inn per se and the garage, which form a row in the edge of the Camino Real (Royal Route) from Toledo to Andalucía, or the Camino Real de la Plata, at the foot of the hill, which allows you to cross La Sierra de la Umbría of Alcudia. This inn is mentioned in Don Quixote and Rinconete y Cortadillo, books of the ingenious Cervantes.
