Castle of Almansa, Medieval castle in Almansa, Spain.

The stone walls of Almansa Castle rise from a rocky hill, with its central tower standing against the backdrop of Albacete province.

Construction of the fortress began in the 14th century under Juan Manuel's direction, followed by substantial modifications by the Marquis of Villena.

The castle holds the designation of Cultural Interest Monument since 1921, representing the architectural evolution of Spanish defensive structures.

Visitors can reach the castle through a wide staircase from Plaza de Santa María, where the Tourist Office provides guided tour information.

The castle incorporates both Christian and Islamic construction techniques, evident in its combination of stone masonry and rammed earth walls.
