El Perro Negro's Day to Day Ramblings

Came across an old castle today. The "Castillo de los Moros"at Restabal (Lecrin Valley) is almost certainly from the Nasrid dynasty & built between the 13th & 14th Centuries.

May have been part of a military reinforcement program carried out in the kingdom of Granada during the time of Yusuf I and his son Muhammad V and it probably had the task of controlling the surrounding farmsteads and the channels of the three main rivers that run through the region.

History comes alive!
