Castillo de Gérgal
🇪🇸 Spain
The Castillo de Gérgal is a late medieval defensive construction located in the Andalusian municipality of Gérgal, province of Almería (Spain). Its strategic siting northeast of the town, on one of the ridges forming the foothills of the Sierra de los Filabres, gives it broad views over the town and the Gérgal watercourse, and it is in turn protected to the north by the natural wall formed by the Loma de Tablas.
