    Not far from Piedrabuena, on top of a mountain is the Miraflores Castle. Originally it was an Islamic fortress. It is now mostly in ruins, but it is still spectacular to see and the views from here are also incredible.

      Miraflores Castle is a fortress of Islamic origin, dated from ceramic samples to around the 9th-10th centuries, although its chronology extends with various modifications until the 14th century. Built in tabiya and masonry, it is mainly located in the town of Piedrabuena.

      The first documentary reference to the Miraflores Castle dates back to the 12th century. In a bull from Pope Gregory VIII of November 4, 1187, all the possessions of the Order of Calatrava are confirmed, among which are the castles of Caracuel, Alarcos, Benavente, Ciruela, Malagón, Guadalerza and Piedrabuena.
