Abstract

Travel literature is an important source for the study of artistic heritage as travelers used to describe the cities and their buildings. The travelers’ tales provide us with unknown information about some works of art and describe monuments that do not survive. The travelers’ tales help us to know how buildings were appreciated in the past. I have analyzed sixty-two authors’ tales to determine their contribution to Castilla-La Mancha’s Art History.
