Castle sights in Trujillo

  1. A

    Trujillo's castle

    At the top of the hill, Trujillo's castle, of 10th-century Muslim origin (evident by the horseshoe-arch gateway just inside the main entrance) and later strengthened by the Christians, is impressive, although bare, but for a lone fig tree. Patrol the battlements for magnificent 360-degree sweeping views. One of the towers contains the hermitage of Our Lady of the Victory, the patron saint of Trujillo.

    Alcazaba

    At the top of the hill, Trujillo's castle of 10th-century Islamic origin (evident by the horseshoe arch just inside the main entrance), later strengthened by the Christians, is impressive although bare. Patrol the battlements for magnificent sweeping views. One tower contains the hermitage of Our Lady of the Victory, Trujillo's patron. Stick a 50-cent coin in a slot to see her spin around in her alcove.
