Rising gracefully above the charming Andalusian village, the Castillo de Baños de la Encina is believed to date back to the 10th century, making it one of Europe’s oldest extant fortresses. Its robust sandstone walls have withstood centuries of Moorish and Christian rule, leaving behind a rich tapestry of cultural influences. Visitors can meander through its ancient courtyards, climb the battlements for sweeping views of Sierra Morena, and imagine life in medieval times. Guided tours showcase the castle’s strategic design and noteworthy defensive features, while cultural events held there throughout the year offer an immersive experience in Spanish history and tradition.
