Castle of Guijosa, Medieval castle in Sigüenza, Spain.
The Castle of Guijosa features a square layout with cylindrical towers at each corner and a central tower decorated with windows and balconies.
Built around 1350 by Iñigo López de Orozco, the castle passed to the House of Medinaceli after its first owner was killed by King Pedro I.
The entrance gate displays the coat of arms of the Orozco family and incorporates architectural elements that mark the transition from military to residential structures.
The castle stands at the same level as the surrounding houses in the town, with only its exterior walls accessible to visitors.
Each corner tower contains hollow chambers supported by corbels, forming crenelated sentry boxes that connect to the castle's walkway.
