republic_srpska thanks for create this thread and for your fantastic photos.
There I put some pictures of the castle of Belmonte (Cuenca, Spain)
Belmonte Castle is built on the site of a previous building built in 1324. The existing building was erected by Juan Pacheco, Marquis de Villena, between 1456 and 1470. It is in the Gothic-Mudejar-plateresque and Gothic-Arabic styles and has two enclosures.
The exterior is pentagon shaped, and joined to walls that go down towards the town; on the side with the exterior door, it has a Gothic porch and lateral balustrade, and more or less at the opposite extreme of the enclosure there is another door, or false door, also with a balustrade, that links the Castle to the town.
The interior enclosure is the real castle, made of three rectangular bodies attached at the corners, leaving a triangular interior space, with two buildings and the keep; each side is reinforced with a circular tower, six in total.
The inside of the enclosure, like the outside, retains in the rooms, galleries, chapel, arches etc.... original work and 19th century neo-gothic renovations.
Some traces remain of the drawbridge and the moat that must have been there.
Belmonte also retains an impressive defensive enclosure made up of the castle and walls and gates.
