Castillo de Almenar

Almenar de Soria, Spain, Spain

Castillo de Almenar is a remarkably well-preserved 15th-century fortress in the village of Almenar de Soria, Soria province, Spain, built atop a 10th-century Arab watchtower and remnants of an earlier medieval castle.

It features a double square enclosure with circular corner turrets, defensive moat crossed by a former drawbridge, and an inner rectangular keep tower—now lost—with palatial rooms, once home to noble Bravo de Laguna, Saravia, and Ríos families bearing visible coats of arms.

Hosted kings like Carlos II and Felipe V, inspired poets such as Bécquer and Machado, served as a Guardia Civil barracks, and starred in films; privately owned since its 1949 heritage status, visits depend on owners' permission amid stunning hilltop views.
