Castillo de Villalba, Medieval castle in Cebolla, Spain
The castle structure retains its exterior barrier and one original corner tower on the main facade, with a semicircular arch entrance between two towers.
The fortress served as a defensive structure for Romans guarding the Via Emerita Augusta and later protected the Córdoba Caliphate against Christian advances.
The castle represents the architectural evolution from Roman to Islamic periods, with subsequent modifications by the Order of Solomon's Temple after the Spanish Reconquest.
Located on a hilltop at coordinates 39.912106, -4.537594, the site permits free access for visitors to examine the remaining structural elements.
From the castle grounds, visitors can view the Tagus meadow, connecting to the former name of Cebolla, Villalba, which translates to white village.
