Medieval evocations are pretty much guaranteed at this 14th-century castle with its muscular crenelated walls and handsome interior patio complete with twisted columns. Formerly the site of a 10th-century Moorish fortress, the castle has been aesthetically renovated and is the site of a lively medieval festival in late May. Guided visits are in Spanish only.
