Discover Montroy: Holiday Apartments Amid History and Landscapes

Montroy can be explored through clearly distinguishable architectural forms, landscape references and beekeeping themes. Today, only the keep remains of the Castillo de Montroy and the wall surrounding it. The tower is an Almohad military structure of Muslim origin dating from the 12th century. The Castillo de Montroy has a square floor plan with four thick, load-bearing outer walls built using the Arabic stone-and-tapia technique known as "masoneria encajonada".

History and Architectural Heritage

The historical architecture can be differentiated for planning purposes according to construction period, floor plan, material technique and surviving structural elements. The Iglesia Parroquial de San Bartolomé Apóstol is a Neoclassical building with a Latin cross floor plan dating from the 19th century. It has three naves and six side chapels. Two towers stand out on the façade; a dome is located above the altar. Those organizing the cultural highlights can consider military and religious architecture separately based on these differing characteristics.
