Castle of Villaviciosa, Medieval fortress in Solosancho, Spain.
The Castle of Villaviciosa stands with stone walls and towers near the Guadarrama river, controlling the passage through narrow valleys and dense forests.
The castle was constructed in the 15th century as a military fortification to protect strategic routes and remained operational throughout various conflicts in Spanish history.
The fortress represents medieval Spanish military architecture and serves as a testament to the defensive structures that shaped the region's development.
Access to the castle requires advance coordination with local authorities, and visitors should prepare for uneven terrain during exploration of the grounds.
The castle's position at the intersection of ancient trade routes made it a key control point for monitoring movement between different Spanish territories.
