Castle of Enrique II, Ciudad Rodrigo, Medieval castle in Ciudad Rodrigo, Spain.
The Castle of Enrique II stands with a Gothic tower and defensive walls made of stone, featuring an artillery barrier from 1507.
The fortress was constructed in the late 14th century after Portuguese forces transferred Ciudad Rodrigo to King Enrique II of Castile.
The castle remains a testament to medieval military architecture and now functions as part of the Spanish Parador network of historic hotels.
Visitors can access the castle daily from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with free entry to the cafeteria and a 2 euro fee for the Tower.
The castle occupies a strategic position near the Portuguese border, incorporating both military defense features and modern hospitality services.
