カンポ・マイオールの洞窟・トップ7

This castle differs significantly from other castles in Portugal, as it is more of a fortress than a royal residence. It is located to the north of the city, with very thick and high castle walls. Due to its strategic location at the highest point in the city, the top of the castle and its ramparts offer magnificent panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.

A place full of history, in the recent past it was a Military Prison where many young Portuguese soldiers served prison sentences.

The Castle of Campo Maior is a medieval military fortress located in the civil parish of São João Bapista, municipality of Campo Maior, part of a first line of defense in the Portuguese Alentejo, facing Spain, associated with the military fortresses of Ouguela, Elvas, Olivença and Juromenha.

Located in the highest part of Badajoz, it was originally built in the year 875 by the hand of Abd-al-Ramman Ibn Marwan "El Yilliqui" and being modified and completed by the different governments that succeeded in the city. Its current configuration is basically the product of the largest reform carried out and that it underwent in the 12th century at the hands of the Almohads, although its greatest period of splendor was in the 11th century during the Aftasid Dynasty.

Pretty little castle with a museum, entry €2
