Don Quixote, fully titled The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha  is a Spanish novel by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra. It follows the adventures of Alonso Quixano, a hidalgo who reads so many chivalric novels that he loses his sanity and decides to set out to revive chivalry, undo wrongs, and bring justice to the world, under the name Don Quixote. He recruits a simple farmer, Sancho Panza, as his squire, who often employs a unique, earthly wit in dealing with Don Quixote's rhetorical orations on antiquated knighthood. Don Quixote, in the first part of the book, does not see the world for what it is, and prefers to imagine that he is living out a knightly story. His adventures begins with Don attack on windmills that he believes to be ferocious giants.

This build presents Don Quixote as a knight, his recruits, Sancho Panza, and Don Quixote's lady love Dulcinea del Toboso.
Custom built horse and donkey, for a better humorous implementation. The windmill is a classic Spain mill from the La Mancha region.

Features of the mill:
- Openable walls for playing inside the mill
- Working mechanism
- Real parts of a windmill (millstone, windshaft, great spurwheel, sack hoist)

The set is playable, educational, functional, and tells a story about the one of the greatest literary work.
