Castillo de La Calahorra, Granada, Spain

In the region of Guadix, between mountains and valleys, stands La Calahorra, a small town with a monumental treasure, its imposing Renaissance castle. This architectural gem, built in the 16th century by the first Marquis of Zenete, combines military strength with the elegance of Italian palaces and is one of the earliest examples of the Renaissance in Spain. Perched at an altitude of 1,250 metres, the castle dominates the landscape of the Marquisate of Zenete and has been the scene of key historical events, from the Christian conquest to the Alpujarras Rebellion. Recently, it gained prominence after being chosen as the location for the series 'House of the Dragon,' created by Ryan Condal and George R.R. Martin.

In spring, the nearby valleys are filled with the white and pink of cherry blossoms, creating an unforgettable landscape. Furthermore, its proximity to the Sierra Nevada and the Alpujarras makes it an ideal destination for nature and history lovers. Visit La Calahorra and discover a corner of Granada where the past and beauty come together.
