Every village in La Mancha seems to have its statue of Don Quijote and its hotel/restaurant/guesthouse Dulcinea but it is Sancho (Panza) that has one of Consuegra’s twelve windmills in his name.
The situation of the windmills on a hill, in a row, like a string of pearls, makes them very visible from a long distance. Once on the spot, we found it quite crowded but it was well worth going up there, if only to see the magnificent valley on the other side.
Les moulins de Don Quichotte
Chaque village de La Mancha semble avoir sa statue de Don Quichotte et son hôtel/restaurant/ pension Dulcinée mais c’est Sancho (Panza) qui voit son nom inscrit sur l’un des douze moulins de Consuegra.
La situation des moulins sur une colline, rangés comme un collier de perles, les rend visibles de loin. Sur place, il y avait du monde mais le voyage en valait la peine, ne serait-ce que pour la vue sur la magnifique vallée de l’autre côté
