For just a few euros, you are able to enjoy a visit to the cheese museum (a few small rooms with nice little exhibits about cheesemaking tradition), and then enjoy a glass of wine with a tasting of different manchego cheeses. We had three different manchegos to try (3 months, 6 months and 12 months) with the strength increasing, and then a pasteurised one, plus a smooth one on some toast; all served with some biscuits to clear the palette between tastings. The lady gave us a very nice explanation of what the cheeses were and how to go about the tasting to be able to pick out the flavours. She couldn't have been nicer and the environment to taste in was very relaxed and clean. There is also a great shop so you can buy cheese or other delicacies to take home. We spent an hour there and all absolutely loved it. Well worth a visit and totally deserving of its 5 star rating

This was a hidden treasure and so quiet. Large, dimly lit church with several El Grecos; the choir area is the museum part with lots of dusty old church relics, carvings, manuscripts, paintings and sculptures. It's well worth a wander - very atmospheric and gently decaying. An old nun will sell you home-made biscuits if you wish and show you how to see El Greco's coffin in a dusty basement, via a mirror. The entrance is through a small wooden door, quite hard to find.

This is a spacious and well set-out museum, once a hospital. Set out in the form of a large cross, each section takes you through a period of Spanish history, with associated art-works, paintings, sculpures, etc. It has several paintings by El Greco / the El Greco school. You can also visit the central patio and there is a permanent exhibition upstairs of pottery from the Iberian pensinsula. |t's a bit hard to find, down the steps and turn left past the statue at Zocodover Sq. The building itslf is beautiful.
