ムルシアの城

Murcia's Castles and Fortresses

This collection features the strategic defensive network surrounding Murcia, primarily dating from the 11th and 12th centuries. These fortifications, including the iconic Castillo de Monteagudo and the Almohad ruins of the Cordillera Sur, were built to control the passage between the Segura valley and the coast. The sites reflect the architectural legacy of the Andalusi period, particularly the reign of Ibn Mardanis, known as the King Wolf, who transformed the region into a powerful independent state.
