This castle of Andalusian origin and Christian reconstruction suffered a significant partial collapse of its tower in 2013 due to the terrible state of conservation in which it was found. In 2016, conservation and restoration works were finally carried out, which were highly controversial due to the restoration concept that was followed, which for some was too intrusive. However, for his honesty and candor in restorative design, which enhances the real remains, he was awarded an international prize for architecture.
