    It is a curious 10th century fortification on top of the hill that served as the southern defense of Toledo.

      This rock fortress, shaped to fit the terrain, has an elongated and irregular shape. Built in the 10th century under Arab rule, it passed into the hands of Alfonso VII and later to the Order of Santiago, to whom it belonged until the 17th century, when King Philip II sold the town of Mora and all its properties, including its castle, to Fernando de Rojas Guevara, becoming part of his lordship.
      From its heights, there is a magnificent view of the immense olive grove, which stretches as far as the eye can see.
      Admission is free.
