Castillo de Caudilla, Medieval castle in Santo Domingo-Caudilla, Spain

The rectangular fortress includes a circular tower, remains of the main keep, and remnants of ancient walls surrounded by a defensive moat.

Built between 1449 and 1450 by Hernando de Rivadeneira, Marshal of Castilla, the castle remained loyal to King Juan II during political conflicts.

The castle displays the Ribadeneira family shield on its highest floor, featuring a cross with five shells over waves, representing their noble heritage.

Visitors can reach the castle by taking the N-403 road between Maqueda and Torrijos, then following the local road TO-4521-V to the site.

The structure retains a small circular tower crowned with a figure of Christ, marking the location of this abandoned medieval fortification.
