Lagartera, Spain

A few photos from around Lagartera ....

 

 

 

 

This is the courtyard of the Municipal Museum which has an excellent collection of embroidery and other items but does not allow photos.

 

 

This is the entrance hall of a typical house.

 

 

Many people have dolls dressed in traditional costumes.

 

 

We visited the home of Olvido Iglesias who is an embroiderer and also sells embroideries (www.olvidoiglesias.com). Most of the items we saw were table cloths.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our hotel was in nearby Oropesa right next to the castle.

 

 

The coat of arms of Oropesa is based on a local legend about a kidnapped princess.
