Cabanillas del Monte shearing shed

The Cabanillas del Monte shearing shed features traditional agricultural architecture with stone walls and wooden beams spanning across multiple floors.

The structure, dating from the 16th century with 18th-century modifications, served as a crucial facility for the region's sheep shearing operations.

This building represents the agricultural heritage of Castile and León, where sheep farming shaped the economic and social fabric of rural communities.
