To the north of the municipal term is the Castle of Calatrava la Vieja, it is the imposing ruins of a fortified city. Fortress of great strategic value, located at an important crossroads, through which passed the main road between Toledo and Córdoba and the one that linked Mérida with Zaragoza and the Atlantic with the Levant. During the Islamic period it was the most important city between Toledo and Córdoba. After it passed into Christian hands, it was the headquarters of the first Hispanic military order, the Order of Calatrava (1158).

It is currently part of the Archaeological Park of Alarcos and Calatrava la Vieja, within the Network of Archaeological Parks of the Junta de Comunidades de Castilla-La Mancha.

Its Parish Church, a Gothic building with Renaissance reforms, preserves a painting from the 16th century and an important image of Sta Mª de los Mártires in polychrome marble from the 13th century.

Carrión de Calatrava is a historic town located at an important crossroads, where the main road between Toledo and Córdoba used to run. Today the town sits next to the N-420 national highway. Rest in the shade of the trees lined up next to the 16th century Church of Santiago and admire its Renaissance style.
