Castillo de Santiago de la Torre, Gothic castle in San Clemente, Spain.

The Castillo de Santiago de la Torre features a defensive L-shaped structure with five round corner towers and a central rectangular keep within a quadrangular courtyard.

The castle, initially known as El Quebrado until 1434, received its current name when Doctor Pedro González del Castillo established a mayorazgo in 1428.

The castle reflects the architectural practices of medieval Spain, incorporating elements from both military defensive structures and Gothic design principles.

The castle requires extensive preservation efforts due to its endangered status, with recent restoration work completed in August 2023.

The fortress walls contain sections that were repurposed as dovecotes and agricultural storage spaces during the 19th century property divisions.
