    The castle was built in 1456 by order of Juan Pacheco, a prominent nobleman during the reign of Henry IV.
    Its architectural style combines Gothic and Mudejar elements.
    It has a peculiar triangular plan and a strategic location on the top of a hill.
    Over the centuries, the castle has witnessed historical events, from visits by the Catholic Monarchs to restorations and cultural events.
    Today, the castle hosts exhibitions, dramatized tours, medieval combat tournaments and the impressive Trebuchet Park, which displays full-scale siege engines. 😊🏰

    Built in the 15th century by order of Don Juan Pacheco, first Marquis of Villena, the castle is a notable example of Gothic-Mudejar architecture.
    The castle has been restored and turned into a museum, and is now considered a Site of Cultural Interest. In addition to its rich history, the castle is known for events such as the National Medieval Combat Championship, which is held annually.
