In 1257, the castles of Aledo and Totana were transferred to the Order of Santiago by King Alfonso X, which led to an expansion of the castle. The Torre de Homenaje (keep, literally "tower of honour") in its current form dates back to the expansion in the 13th century. The emblem of the Caballeros de Santiago, the Cross of St. James, is also still preserved in the city's coat of arms.
