The fiction follows the intrigues in the court of Alfonso X the Wise in late 13th-century Toledo as well as it attempts to depict the historical postulate about the so-called "Convivencia of the Three Cultures".
[1] Toledo, cruce de destinos was created by Emilio Díez.
[12][13] Produced by Boomerang TV for Antena 3,[12] the first episode premiered on 10 January 2012.
The historical depiction of Toledo was bashed by historians,[12] while former mayor of Toledo Juan Ignacio de Mesa [es] wrote in a column he felt "embarrassed" after watching a few episodes.
[12] In addition, critics also pointed out the "gratuitous" switch of the characters of Sancho and Fernando, when Fernando was the heir-apparent instead of the younger infante, as well as the condition of bastard of Sancho, and other historical anachronisms (loose hair instead of hair up for most women, the horizontal companionship between an heir apparent and his servants, errors in the representation of medieval women, Jews not abiding to kosher, soldiers "in uniform" or anachronical swords, to name a few).
