In the center of the Iberian Peninsula, numerous remains of medieval castles can be found, forming part of the landscape of this region and serving as a vivid reminder of times past. These monuments are usually located on the outskirts of small modern towns. Most are built atop gentle hills that overlook the vast plateau of the Meseta. Architecturally, these castles often have a simple square layout, defended by strong prisms and cylinders of considerable height. Entrances and openings are disproportionately small. All architectural elements serve military defensive purposes: towers, keeps, walls, battlements, moats...
Many of these structures date back to the time of the Reconquista, when the peninsula was under Islamic rule, while the architectural and artistic consolidation of these castles mainly took place during the 14th and 15th centuries. Later, many parts of the complexes were added or modified to meet new needs. Today, a large number of these castles lie in ruins, despite the proud appearance of many and subsequent restoration efforts.
