Castell de la Suda, Medieval castle on Seu Vella hill in Lleida, Spain
The Suda Castle features rectangular defensive towers and stands at the highest point of Lleida, dominating the surrounding Segrià landscape.
Built in 882 by Ismail ibn Musa, the castle served as a refuge for Hisham III, the last Caliph of Cordoba, between 1031 and 1036.
The castle houses an interpretation center with museum exhibits and audiovisual displays that document the structure's evolution through different periods.
Visitors can access the castle Tuesday through Friday from 10:00 to 13:30 and 15:00 to 17:30, with guided tours available in Spanish and Catalan.
In 1214, Catalan and Aragonese nobles gathered at the castle to pledge their loyalty to James I, marking a defining moment in Spanish history.
