El Castellar, Medieval castle ruins in Torres de Berrellén, Spain
The castle rises 320 meters above sea level on a limestone cliff overlooking the Ebro River, featuring defensive walls and remaining stone structures.
King Sancho Ramirez ordered the construction of this fortress in 1091 to establish a strategic position against the Muslim-controlled city of Zaragoza.
The castle complex included four religious buildings: San Miguel and San Pedro churches, along with Santa María Magdalena and Nuestra Señora del Rosario hermitages.
Access to certain sections requires crossing military training ground boundaries, as parts of the ruins lie within the San Gregorio military maneuver field.
The castle contains fourteen preserved tubes on its eastern side, forming a qanat system that connected to a water trough down the hill.
