Granadilla Castle
Description
Granadilla Castle originates from the 9th century and was rebuilt after Reconquista in the 12th century. The current castle was recreated by Don García Álvarez de Toledo in 1473-1478.
Today Granadilla is a ghost town. In 1955, during the Franco regime, its residents had to leave when the Council of Ministers ordered a reservoir to be built nearby. Currently, the area is a summer campsite for young people and tourists.
