Castle of Orgaz, Medieval castle in Orgaz, Spain

The rectangular fortress features a 20-meter quadrangular tower and exterior walls built with masonry, bricks, and ashlar reinforcements at the corners.

Built in the 14th century by Alvar Pérez de Guzmán upon a 12th-century structure, the castle received modifications during the 15th century.

The main entrance displays an arch adorned with the Guzmán family coat of arms, reflecting the noble lineage that inhabited the fortress.

The castle offers guided tours Monday through Friday at 1:00 PM, with additional weekend tours at 11:30 AM, costing 3 euros per person.

Instead of traditional towers, the castle incorporates corner watchtowers with arrow slits and merlons crowning the defensive structure.
