Already since the 13th century, the territory of Puerto Lápice was part of the Campo de San Juan, the extensive territory under the seigneurial jurisdiction of the Knights Hospitaller in the lands of La Mancha. In Miguel de Cervantes’ novel Don Quixote, it is the second town to which Quixote and Sancho Panza travel together.

On 2007, there was a meteorite fall near this town.
