    Umayyad fortification dating from the 10th century located on a small hill overlooking the town of Baños de la Encina, located in the north of the province of Jaén.



    We also find flanking a robust and crenellated wall with fourteen towers, plus a fifteenth Torre del Homenaje of Christian origin. It therefore represents a perfect example of a Muslim fortress from the 10th century, and constitutes the best preserved fortified complex from the time of the Caliphate of Córdoba, at the same time that it is one of the best preserved Muslim castles in all of Spain.
