Castillo de Báguena overlooks the municipality of the same name in Teruel province, built in the 11th century atop earlier Iberian and Muslim settlements. Originally constructed by the Order of the Temple after the reconquest, the castle passed to the community of Daroca following the order's dissolution in 1312. During Pedro IV's reign, it was strategically reinforced due to proximity to the Castilian border. The fortress withstood a notable siege in April 1363 by Castilian forces, with legend claiming its alcaide Miguel de Bernabé died clutching the keys while the castle burned. Today, two towers of differing construction styles separated by several meters represent the surviving remains of this storied Aragonese stronghold.
