Portillo Castle, Medieval castle in Portillo, Spain.
The castle features cylindrical towers, a robust gatehouse, and substantial stone walls that demonstrate the architectural methods of medieval Spanish fortifications.
From 1448 to 1452, Don Álvaro de Luna resided at the castle before his detention in Burgos and subsequent execution in Valladolid in 1453.
The University of Valladolid maintains this national monument, which received official recognition as a property of cultural interest in 1931.
The castle opens on weekends and holidays from April through October, with visits available from 11:00 AM to 1:30 PM and 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM.
King Juan II of Castile managed to escape from imprisonment in this castle in 1444 by successfully bribing his guard during his confinement.
