The Alcázar of Segovia is one of Spain’s most striking castles, perched atop a rocky hill overlooking the city. Its unique shape, reminiscent of a ship, and its towering turrets make it a landmark straight out of a storybook. Built between the 12th and 16th centuries, it has served as a royal palace, military fortress, and state prison.
I loved exploring the grand halls, richly decorated rooms, and the impressive armory. Climbing the towers offered breathtaking panoramic views of Segovia, the surrounding countryside, and the iconic Roman Aqueduct. The castle’s architecture and history make it feel like stepping into a medieval fairy tale.
For anyone visiting Segovia, the Alcázar is a must-see destination that combines history, architecture, and stunning scenery in one unforgettable experience.
