Salvatierra Castle

Highlight • Castle

One of the set of castles in this area of Calatrava, where in this case the one of Salvatierra is already in ruins, where some of what used to be its walls remain!

You can see the fortified castle from miles away. You can understand the reasons why it was built on this dominant hill. Beautiful views of the defensive complex of the castle.

Settled on remains from the Bronze Age and a Visigothic settlement, this large fortress built in the 13th century is located on top of a hill.

It was built by the Order of Calatrava after the battle of Las Navas de Tolosa, becoming the headquarters of the order and one of the most important defensive fortresses in Castile.

More than a simple fortress, it is a complex that included a church, a convent, a hostel, a town and an external enclosure, all protected by an extensive wall.
