Church of the Assumption, Campo de Criptana
Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Asunción
The town's main church, with a tall bell tower rebuilt in the 20th century that serves as another landmark on the skyline.
The Church of the Assumption stands beside the town hall square in the centre of town. It was originally built in the 16th century, was destroyed during the Spanish Civil War, and was rebuilt in the 1940s and 1950s in a neoclassical style with local traditions. Its tall bell tower can be seen from far across the plain. Inside are a statue of the Virgin and a modern altarpiece. Around the church is the town's main cluster of restaurants and cafés, convenient to visit before or after climbing the Windmill Hill. It is open for visits outside Mass times.
