The village and castle of Ciruela, located about 6 kilometres from Ciudad Real, are a place full of history and charm. The castle, known during the Arab domination as Hisn al Sujayrola, was part of a network of fortifications in the lower basin of the Jabalón River. Although today only ruins remain, they sit on a modest height overlooking the Jabalón Valley.
The village and the castle have been the subject of archaeological and geological studies, highlighting their importance within the "Calatrava Volcanoes Geopark" project. This project seeks to protect and disseminate the natural and cultural heritage of the region.
