The Calatravos castle is today a national tourist stop. Its oldest part dates back to the 13th century, although the cloister and palace date from the 14th century. The outer wall was renovated in the 19th century.

From here you have a good view of the surroundings. Today the castle is a hotel (Parador).

Calatravos Castle is located on a ridge at the southern end of the town of Alcañiz. This castle was built strategically, it is said, possibly in Roman and later Muslim times.
