Castell d'Ali Maimo, Medieval castle in Olocau and Marines, Valencia, Spain

The castle structure follows an irregular perimeter that adapts to the surrounding terrain, featuring two distinct enclosures with visible architectural remains.

The fortress remained one of the last strongholds to surrender during King James I's reconquest, marking the end of Muslim control in the region.

The castle received the designation of Cultural Heritage Asset, recognizing its importance in preserving Valencia's medieval military architecture.

The castle grounds can be reached through Camino del Castillo, which provides access to visitors interested in exploring the historical structure.

Early mentions of the castle appear in Ibn Idari's compilation about 11th century Valencia and in Historia Roderici, narrating Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar's adventures.
