Medieval arab fortress: View PDF

This castle from the 8th century is on the Júcar river, on a promontory in Manchego-Levantinas. The architecture of the Parador, which occupies the medieval castle of the Marquises of Villena, is the result of more than three centuries of history. Founded by the Muslims in the 8th century, it was captured by King Alfonso VIII in the 12th century. It was the home of writer Don Juan Manuel, and has been the scene of sieges and revolts in centuries past. Emphasis has been placed on maintaining the authenticity of the building, with oak wood and a mix of modern and classic styles that accentuate its medieval character. The use of reds and oranges contrast with the sobriety of the space, and provide an impressive background for a collection of paintings which echo pieces of famous works also found in Cuenca. Tapies, Redondela, Sempere, Amadeo Gabino, Alvaro Delgado, Martínez Novillo and Menchu Gal are just some of the painters whose work decorates the former Castle of the Marquises of Villena, a peaceful refuge on the Castilian plateau. Fourteen pleasant ensuite guestrooms are available, and there is a restaurant serving regional cuisine, under the guidance of chef Martín Alonso Castaño. In addition to double rooms with two beds, the Parador also offers double with king bed and canopy and junior suites. Breakfast is included in room price..
