Loarre Castle or Loarre Abbey Castle (in Aragonese castiello de Lobarre) is a Romanesque castle located in the province of Huesca, Aragon, Spain. It was built in the 11th century and is in a good state of preservation, making it one of the best examples of Romanesque military and civil architecture in Spain. The castle sits on a limestone promontory that it uses as a foundation. This was a great defensive advantage, since the walls could not be mined (a common technique in the siege of fortresses, which consisted of building a tunnel under the wall and then collapsing it to open a breach through which to attack). It is also surrounded by a wall with towers. The castle is in a fairly good state of preservation (except for the part of the old castle of Sancho III of Navarre, which is much more deteriorated) and is considered the best preserved Romanesque fortress in Europe.

The place with a privileged position, on a plane the location was with the river Gállego at its feet, and the Mallos behind, allowing a defense from all fronts.
