Fuensaldaña Castle, Gothic castle in Fuensaldaña, Spain.

The square fortress features four round corner towers, a central keep reaching 34 meters high, and walls crowned with battlements and turrets.

The structure dates from the 15th century when Alonso Perez de Vivero commissioned its construction, using Captive Moors as builders for the project.

The castle served as the seat of the Cortes of Castile and León, the regional legislature, from 1983 to 2007, representing local governance.

Visitors can access the castle during specific hours, with general admission at 5 euros and guided tours including tower access for 6 euros.

The keep contains four vaulted halls made of ashlar masonry, with its original entrance positioned 6 meters high, accessed by a former drawbridge.
