| It is a polygonal enclosure with thick walls. Inside is a square tower built out of rammed earth without windows which probably served as a keep. At the end of the courtyard stands a peculiar triangular tower of later date it was built in the first half of the 14th century. It is supposedly unique in Europe. This tower is said to be one of the first examples of a civic-military building in Catalan style in Valencian territory. It is obviously known as 'Torre de las Tres Esquinas' (Tower of the Three Corners). |
