Description

An imposing 15th-century castle-church dominating Turégano's main square, a unique case in Spain where a fortress completely envelops a 13th-century Romanesque church. The Mendoza family walls protect the San Miguel church, creating a singular architectural ensemble. From the keep tower, views extend across the Segovian plateau, pine forests and on clear days the Sierra de Guadarrama.
