The walled enclosure of Daroca is a unique example of Spanish military architecture due to its length, style and variety of construction periods.

Spanish Pyrenees Hike ~ Zaragoza (Region) The first fortifications of the Roca during the Moorish period probably date back to the 11th century, starting from the present Castillo Mayor, an old Moorish castle, probably built towards the San Cristobal Hill with its fortified Christian tower of the same name (13th-14th century), then towards the Tres Guitalos Walls and finally back to the Castillo Mayor. Later, as Daroca gradually developed during the Christian period, the remains of the city walls extended to its current size of 4 kilometers. Most of them are well preserved and were built in different periods (13th to 19th century) using different types of architectural elements (ashlar, masonry, etc.). Some of the most important elements are the Puerta Baja Gate (15th century), the Puerta Alta Gate (17th century reconstruction), the Torre de Cariñena tower, among others. #AprilDestinations2025 #SpainTravel #Aragon
