Castle of Pelegrina
Pelegrina, Spain, Spain
Castle of Pelegrina in Pelegrina near Sigüenza, Guadalajara province, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain, dates to the 12th-13th century as a strategic fortress overlooking the Dulce River valley and key Roman roads.
Originally a Muslim watchtower, it became property of Sigüenza's bishops serving as a summer palace and hunting lodge, with solid corner towers reinforcing defensive walls for top-down protection, later seized by King Peter I for his Aragón campaigns.
Sacked by Navarrese forces, burned in the War of Succession, and dismantled by Napoleonic troops in the Peninsular War, its ruins now blend into the surrounding natural park offering vulture sightings and hiking access.
