Dulcinea's House Museum in El Toboso

The entrance and the kitchen

From the entrance, with its floor cobbled with river stones, you go through to the kitchen, the pantry and the wine cellar. You'll see pottery, basketwork, cheese-making utensils and horse tack.

The oil mill

A room with an oil mill that was turned by animals.

The dovecote and the yard

A small arcaded courtyard leads into the yard, home to one of the most curious corners of the house: a dovecote with its walls full of nests. The yard also keeps an old stone well beside some large elm trees.

The press

At the far end of the yard there's a huge press for olive oil or grapes, with a solid wooden beam about 15 metres long.

The upper floor

Upstairs are the rooms where visitors were received and, at the back, the private rooms: the bedrooms and the estrado, the room reserved for the women of the house. From here you climb up to the little tower that gives the house its popular name.
