Moclín Castle
Highlight • Castle
Also known as Hisn al-Muqlin (“Fortress of the Two Pupils”) during the Nasrid period.
Built by the Nasrids in the mid-14th century, after the fall of fortresses such as Alcalá la Real, to reinforce the border with Castile; situated within the northwestern defensive system of the Kingdom of Granada.
It suffered severe damage during the Spanish Civil War, was used as a cemetery, and was bombed; partial restorations began in 2010 and continued between 2012 and 2013, although signs of neglect are still evident.
