    It is in a state of consolidated ruin. Some canvases of the wall and the solid keep, with a height of 16 meters, have been preserved. It was built in masonry with rows (verdugadas) of brick in the purest Moorish style, with the corners of the keep in masonry. The castle has a triangular floor plan, with the access door on the east wall, next to the Keep, and on it appear the coats of arms of the Albornoz and Luna family.

      The castle of Arcos de Jalón dominates the town of the same name. It was built in the 14th century, on the foundations of an Islamic fortress.

        At the top of the pretty village are the Keep and the East Wall. There are also two ways up: a ramp from the west and a staircase from the east. In the castle courtyard, there is a Monument to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. There are several viewpoints from which you can admire a wide landscape.
