Spain
Castillo de Priego de Córdoba is a fortress located in Priego de Córdoba, in Andalusia, Spain. Its origin goes back to the Islamic period of al-Andalus, although most of what is preserved corresponds to the reconstruction that took place during the 13th and 14th centuries. Its structure and austere appearance correspond to a radically military character owing to its frontier position between the Crown of Castile and the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada.
