BIZILYANA FORTRESS

Rincón de la Victoria
The castle of Bezmiliana is situated on the highest point of what was once its farmstead. It possibly dates back to the 10th century. It is made of mud-bricked masonry and its faces are plastered with plaster, in some cases decorated. It consists of 13 towers, 12 of which are quadrangular and 1 circular, probably built in the Nasrid period, a main gate facing southeast, with its barbican, and a small gateway on the western side. Inside, a possible cistern and some structures of difficult functional attribution have been preserved.
