Castle of Arnedo, Medieval fortress in Arnedo, Spain

The stone fortress stands on a rocky triangular outcrop, rising 60 meters above its base and covering 1400 square meters across two platforms.

The initial defensive structures date from Roman times, while the current fortress was constructed by Muslim rulers in the 9th century during their occupation.

The castle reflects the architectural evolution from Roman to Muslim and Christian periods through its remaining structures and design elements.

The castle conducts guided tours since 2018, following extensive preservation work on both the structure and its supporting rock formation.

The fortress maintained control over the Cidacos Valley, serving as a natural route between the Ebro Valley and the central Spanish plateau.
