Castellar de Santiago is a Spanish municipality in the province of Ciudad Real, Castilla–La Mancha. It is located southeast of Valdepeñas, about 150 kilometres from the closest large city, Córdoba, and 212 kilometres from Madrid. The village lies on the northern slope of the Sierra Morena mountain range. The area has abundant olive trees and holm oak trees. The Moors were impressed by its forestation and named it Mata de Vencáliz (Vencáliz Forest).
Castellar de Santiago celebrates several festivals through the year, mostly in the spring and summer months. The most significant is the Festival of the Bonfires from 13 to 16 September. It commemorates the Holy Christ of Mercy, which is the patron saint of Castellar. The closing ceremony on the night of the 16th features a fireworks display.

What people eat in Castilla-La Mancha when they eat well.
From Manchega sheep, with PDO; semi-cured or cured, never missing from the table.
Garden tomato, pepper and courgette, with a fried egg if you let yourself be spoiled.
The world's most expensive spice is harvested here by hand, flower by flower, every October.
Day-old bread, garlic and paprika; waste-not cooking that tastes of the countryside.
Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.
We haven't confirmed Castellar de Santiago's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
