Castle of Almenar, Medieval castle in Almenar de Soria, Spain.

The castle incorporates a double-walled structure with a square layout and cylindrical turrets reinforcing each corner of the fortification.

Built during the 15th century upon an older castle foundation, this fortress served as a residence for Spanish nobility and kings until the 18th century.

The stone walls display the heraldic coats of arms of three noble families who owned the castle: the Bravo de Laguna, Saravias, and Ríos.

Access to the castle requires advance arrangements, with visits available during summer months through the Almenar de Soria tourism office.

The defensive system features an artificial moat with a fixed bridge that replaced the original drawbridge used to control access to the castle.
