Molino del Cubo - Torredonjimeno
On November 30, 1227, King Ferdinand III of Castile conquered the city of Baeza, and a year later, on December 8, 1228, the Castilian King donated the territory of Martos and its region to the Order of Calatrava, who built the mill of Cubo in 1437. The history of the property wentunnoticed until the Spanish Civil War, at which time people from all over the city gathered under its protection to barter food and engage in forbidden meetings, so the mill workers decided to invent the legend that a leprechaun lived in the construction. From this point, the building became the subject of countless local myths, including one about a child who died in the stream and whose spirit prowls the site. The only legend with witnesses is that of a levitating man, dressed in black, whose existence is testified by local women who used to visit the stream to do their laundry. The mill is a cubic construction, hence its name; it is not, therefore, a hydraulic work similar to the cube mills of Islamic or medieval origin. It is currently well preserved.
