Castillo de Moclín, Medieval fortress in Moclín, Spain
The castle stands at an elevation of 1,065 meters with extensive fortification walls adapted to the mountainous terrain of Granada province.
Built in the 13th century as Hins Al-Muqlin, the castle served as a frontier defense between the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada and Kingdom of Castile.
The fortress contains a notable Torre del Homenaje tower in the northeastern section, offering direct views toward the neighboring town of Alcalá la Real.
Guided tours of the castle cost 2.50 euros per person, with free entry for children under 8 years of age.
The castle features a large water cistern in its upper section that proved essential during prolonged military sieges.
