Castle of Torremormojón, Medieval fortress in Pedraza de Campos, Spain

The Castle of Torremormojón stands on an isolated hill with rectangular layout, circular towers at corners, and a pentagonal tower next to a moat.

Built in the 12th century as a defensive point along the borders between the kingdoms of León and Castilla, the castle was governed by royal-appointed tenants.

The structure earned the nickname 'Star of Campos' due to its strategic location that allowed control over large areas of the Tierra de Campos region.

The privately owned castle remains can be visited throughout the year, featuring thick stone walls, artillery adaptations, and a vaulted chamber from the original tower.

Between 1502 and 1512, the castle underwent renovations that transformed its entrance into an artillery structure, similar to the Castle of La Mota.
