Castle of Batres, Medieval castle in Batres, Spain.

The Castle of Batres sits on a hilltop, with four angular towers and thick brick walls surrounding a central courtyard with stone columns.

Built between the 15th and 16th centuries, the castle served as a residence for noble families, including the poet Garcilaso de la Vega.

The castle exhibits Gothic and Plateresque architectural elements, featuring a main portal with coats of arms of Laso de la Vega and Guzman families.

The castle houses a school of gardening and landscaping, offering specialized courses and workshops throughout the year.

The fortress maintains its original Renaissance structure with double gallery courtyards supported by Toledan columns and 16th-century iron balconies.
