No matter from which perspective, the view of the castle of Loarre is simply impressive. And it is that, located on a limestone promontory, this is the Romanesque castle in the best state of conservation in all of Europe. It was built in the 11th century by order of King Sancho III and in recent decades it has featured in several films, notably Ridley Scott's Kingdom of Heaven.
