Castillo de Ocentejo
Ocentejo, Spain, Spain
Castillo de Ocentejo, located near the village of Ocentejo in Guadalajara province, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain, consists of ruins from a modest 13th-century watchtower built during the Reconquista to guard Tajo River gorges against Muslim raids.
Positioned strategically in the Alto Tajo Natural Park for surveillance of salt flats and trade routes, the simple masonry structure featured basic rectangular walls with arrow slits before progressive decay left only foundation remnants amid rugged terrain.
Today, the site integrates into hiking paths, evoking the frontier defenses typical of Alcarria outposts without notable noble ownership or preserved architecture.
