January 17, 2026, Castillo de Arévalo

Arévalo Castle, located in the town of Arévalo (province of Ávila, Castile and León), is one of the most representative examples of Castilian Mudéjar architecture. Its origins date back to the 14th century, although it was built upon earlier fortifications. It was expanded between the 15th and 16th centuries, especially during the reign of the Catholic Monarchs. It played an important role as a noble and military castle, but also as an administrative building. In the 20th century, it fell into near ruin until its restoration, beginning in 1952, by the Ministry of Agriculture, which uses it as the headquarters of a research center.

The Plaza de la Villa de Arévalo is one of the most beautiful squares, absolutely traffic-free and without bars or terraces, it stands out for its tranquility and for being surrounded by history and Mozarabic buildings.

Castle fortress located at the most extreme part of the triangle formed by the confluence of the Adaja and Arevalillo rivers, which serve as defensive ditches. It was rebuilt in the second half of the 15th century by order of Álvaro de Zúñiga, Duke of Béjar, although it subsequently underwent important reforms at the beginning of the 16th century, when the fortress was in the hands of the Catholic Monarchs. The Castle is worth visiting for its good condition, and it also has a very interesting exhibition.

Beautiful town in Segovia, with all services. It stands out for its imposing castle and the squares with a marked medieval character.

In addition to the imposing Castle where Isabel la Católica resided, in the town we have all the services: Shops, restaurants and accommodation.
