• On the first crag of the Sierra de los Castillejos, the castle rules over the village of Albanchez de Mágina from above.
  • Though small, this castle impresses visitors with its spectacular position.
  • Of Christian origin, it was built at the beginning of the 14th century, replacing a Muslim castle of which hardly anything remains.
  • From the top of the castle we can see the contrast between the mountainous terrain and the hills dressed in olive groves. In the distance we can make out Úbeda, Baeza and Bedmar.
  • It was declared a Site of Cultural Interest in 1985.
