Visit to the Castillo de Alcalá de Guadaíra

A very short distance from Dos Hermanas stands the imposing medieval fortress of the Castillo de Alcalá de Guadaíra, a defensive complex of Almohad origin remodeled after the Christian reconquest that dominates the Guadaíra riverbed from its monumental hill.

The visit to the walled enclosure has free admission to stroll through its parade grounds, alcazars, and defensive towers. From its ramparts, you can see spectacular panoramic views of the metropolitan surroundings and the surrounding pine forests.

It is recommended to access on foot from the historic center of Alcalá at sunset to enjoy the views with the golden light of the afternoon.
