Castillo del Moral

The building is rectangular in shape, with towers rising at the corners, connected by a walkway of varying thickness and 9.65 metres in height.

The most prominent element is the Torre del Moral, which has an octagonal base. Originally, the tower's roof was flat with battlements, but in the 18th century, it was replaced by an octagonal brick vault. The last Nasrid sultan, Boabdil, was imprisoned in this tower during the Battle of Lucena (1483).

The Torre de las Damas, the Torre del Homenaje, and the Torre del Coso are also preserved. A large parade ground opens in the centre. From this courtyard, access to the Torre del Moral is via external stairs. 

The entire compound is surrounded by another outer wall, six metres high and two metres thick, where the 'fosse' or 'defence corridor' is located. At the ground level of the fosse, there are numerous arrow slits, particularly in the northern and western sections of the wall. There are also others at the same level as the walkway. An Almohad gate with a pointed arch is still preserved on the north side of the wall.
