This recently (and well) renovated tower from the 14th century is part of the many in the region belonging to the order of Santiago. The List of Towns of Jaén, by Philip II of 1575, describes it as: "a tower with a fence around it with its cubes and arrow slits and other signs in the middle of the town and that has a fairly deep water well inside it." for her servitude and that she and the castle are made of lime and earth and stone." (VILLEGAS DÍAZ, L. R., GARCÍA SERRANO, R., 1976. pp. 9-302).

Strategically located on the road that connects the Alto Guadalquivir region with the lands of La Mancha. The castle of Segura de la Sierra is one of the main cultural tourist attractions in the area. The Castle dates from the time of the Knights of the Order of Santiago and was built during the 13th and 14th centuries. Spectacular views of the entire landscape.

The town of Siles is located in the Guadalimar river valley, in the Sierra de la Segura. The town skyline is dominated by El Cubo, a medieval defensive structure left over from a 13th century castle.

This defense fortification was built on the remains of a previous fortress by the Order of Santiago, which placed the center of the Commandery of Castile there. It has suffered throughout history various processes of abandonment and inconsideration. In the 1960s a restoration took place that, with greater or lesser success, has allowed us to fit out this historic building as a public space. At the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, it underwent another adaptation process that, also, with greater or lesser success, has led us to reflect on museographic intervention.

We loved it, the animals enter for free! Super nice people 👍

The defensive complex is, together with the castle of Segura de la Sierra, one of the strongest and strongest fortresses in the entire Sierra de Segura. It is currently undergoing rehabilitation and adaptation to house the Hornos de Segura Astronomy Workshop, which will include an astronomical observatory, planetarium, dark room and exhibition hall, among other facilities.

Towards the castle converge the remains of canvases of the old walls that, in another time, completely surrounded the Villa. Of a purely defensive nature, the complex is made up of the Tower of Homage, three small towers and the remains of a large room of which only the outer wall that closed the parade ground remains, also conserving the remains of other walled elements. The Tower of Homage is a construction with rounded corners and small masonry based on materials typical of the area, among which the "tuff" stands out. It presents as a peculiarity a single entrance at half height which was accessed by parapets, possibly made of wood, which were removed in case of danger, leaving the Tower isolated. Inside, there are two vaulted rooms connected by a staircase carved into the thickness of the wall, through which there is also access to a terrace that could once have been "crenellated".

Hornos is a town and municipality in the province of Jaén, in the autonomous community of Andalusia, belonging to the Comarca de Segura. It has a surface area of 118.4 km². According to INE sources, in 2016 it had a population of 649 inhabitants. Its municipal area belongs entirely to the Sierra de Cazorla, Segura and Las Villas natural park, including the enclave of Cabeza de la Viña nestled within the Santiago-Pontones area. The Hornos de Segura Castle, dating from the 12th to the 14th centuries, dominates the town from its rocky watchtower, and is the main reference point of the historic-artistic complex along with the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption (16th century), the Gate of the Town and the Fort (of Roman origin).
