Peña Bermeja Castle, Medieval castle in Brihuega, Spain.
The castle stands on a high position above the Tajuña River, featuring Proto-Gothic and Romanesque architectural elements throughout its structure.
Originally built as a palace for King al-Mamun of Toledo, the fortress later became a residence for the archbishops of Toledo until the 16th century.
The structure represents the evolution of Spanish military architecture, combining defensive capabilities with residential elements typical of medieval religious authorities.
