Castillo de Utrera is a medieval fortress perched above the city of Utrera, near Seville, with roots dating back to the Almohad period and first documented mention in 1246 by King Alfonso X. Built by the Council of Seville over earlier Moorish remains, the castle features defensive walls, towers at corners and intermediate sections, and four historic access gates. The fortress once commanded an 18-hectare protected area with 38 towers. After declining following the Granada conquest and suffering destruction by Napoleon in 1813, the castle underwent reconstruction completed in 1986. Today it houses a museum dedicated to the castle's history and the broader Moorish heritage of the region.
