Castle of Trevejo, Medieval castle in Trevejo, Spain
The Castle of Trevejo stands on an elevated hill, featuring a central tower and remaining sections of defensive walls overlooking the Sierra de Gata mountains.
The fortress changed ownership multiple times, passing from the Knights Templar to the Order of St. John of Jerusalem in 1184 by decree of King Fernando II.
The tower displays the shield of commander Juan Piñero, decorated with a tree, pennants, chalices, and the Cross of Malta above the entrance.
The castle structure requires careful exploration due to its deteriorating condition, with access through a small elevated gate near the remaining fortification walls.
At the base of the castle lie stone anthropomorphic tombs where warrior monks, the initial owners of the fortress, were laid to rest.
