Butrón, Gothic Revival castle in Gatika, Spain.
The castle features four circular towers at its corners and stands prominently among palm trees and exotic plants in the Basque countryside.
Originally built in the 11th century as a tower house, the structure underwent extensive reconstruction in 1878 by architect Francisco de Cubas.
The Butrón family played a central role in the regional conflicts known as the Bandos Wars between the 13th and 15th centuries.
Located 20 kilometers from Bilbao, the castle grounds remain accessible to visitors despite the building being closed to the public.
The castle's renovation drew inspiration from Bavarian architecture, resulting in an unusual combination of Gothic and Germanic design elements.
