Amazing to visit a house so old that raised Cervantes! Very well preserved and organised! Free entrance! And there are statues of Don Quixote and Sancho in front of the house! Loved it!

Very cool, I didn't know who Cervantes was until after the visit but I learned a lot and enjoyed the entire exhibition. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Alcala, it's free too!

Free yes free. Self guided tour of the home of the author of Man of La Mancha. The street it’s located on is loaded with little shops and cafes. It not a heavy tourist area so the crowds were manageable It’s worth coming here for a visit

Although the museum is not that big, it’s nice to see the birth place of the most famous Spanish writer, Miguel de Cervantes. It’s also very interesting to see what the place used to look like from the exhibits. If you are in the area, it’s definitely worth visiting.

In center of Alcalá you can find the Cervantes Birthplace house and museum. The entrance is free and you can learn and see how was the lifestyle at that time. Very interesting and a mandatory visit in Alcalá.

Took the Cercanías bus to visit Alcalá de Henares for the day to visit the birthplace of Miguel de Cervantes. There was an interactive show, you get to explore the home, all for free. Expect a line, but it moves pretty quickly.

Even if you didn't read his masterpiece, if you are eager to see how a spanish house looked like few centuries ago. Then this is a must seen. And remember that the town is not far from Madrid, offers a lovely walking space with many restaurants. And the entrance is free of charge.

Intersting, even if you are not a fan of Cervantes' work, seeing how one lived during that era is fascinating. Can you spot the English grammar error in the sign? Hopefully, this stimulates the local tourist authority to fix it. This is a university town, after all. Such visible errors are....ironic, to say the least.

I may as well post pictures of windmills (Consuegra, La-Mancha).
Sancho could be Samwise Gamgee if he had followed the right master. I’m just saying.

Honesty IS the Key!
