Castell de Fanzara
Spain, Spain
Castell de Fanzara, situated above the village of Fanzara in Castellón province, Valencian Community, Spain, originated as a medieval fortress from the Islamic period, later repopulated by Christians after James I's 1238 conquest when settlers from nearby Castellet established the town below.
Perched strategically amid rugged mountains along the Mijares River in the Alto Mijares region, the ruins feature remnants of defensive walls and towers typical of frontier strongholds during the Reconquista era.
Today, accessible via hiking trails, these evocative remains offer panoramic views complementing Fanzara's fame for urban art murals and natural escapes like Cueva de la Muela cave.
