Located in Moclín, Granada, crowning a hill at approximately 1100 meters above sea level, the fortress stands atop a natural rocky outcrop, overlooking the town and the Granada plain. Also known as Hisn al-Muqlin (“Fortress of the Two Pupils”) during the Nasrid period. Built by the Nasrids in the mid-14th century, after the fall of fortresses such as Alcalá la Real, to reinforce the border with Castile; situated within the northwestern defensive system of the Kingdom of Granada. It suffered severe damage during the Spanish Civil War, was used as a cemetery, and was bombed; partial restorations began in 2010 and continued between 2012 and 2013, although signs of neglect are still evident.

It stands atop a rocky outcrop overlooking the town of Montefrío (Granada, Andalusia). This Nasrid fortress was likely begun by Sultan Yusuf I in the 14th century (around 1352) to defend the northwestern border of the Kingdom of Granada. It consisted of two walled enclosures and several semicircular towers, with pathways carved into the rock and cisterns for water. Christian Conquest (1486): After falling to the Catholic Monarchs, a Gothic-Renaissance church was built within the upper enclosure, leveling the barbican. The church, known as the Church of the Town, was completed in 1507 and later expanded in the Renaissance style.

This bridge is of Arab origin and was strategically located at the entrance to the town to cross the ravine eroded by the Cubillas River. It was declared an architectural-artistic monument in 1922. It also contains a gate to control the entrance to the town to ensure the passage of people wishing to enter the town. It has three large horseshoe arches with spans between seven and eleven meters. Some historians have suggested that its origin may even be earlier, and that it may be Visigothic. This is not a far-fetched idea, since from the dawn of time when the first human settlements occurred in the town, it must have included a way to cross the ravine from one side to the other.
