Iznajar Castle

The first references to the castle date back to the 8th century, during the time of the Emirate of Córdoba, although its origins may go back to earlier periods. Known as the "joyful castle," its Arabic name, "Hisn al-Ashar," reflects its importance as a strategic point on the border between the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada and the surrounding Christian territories.

The castle has witnessed numerous events throughout history. During the Late Middle Ages, it repeatedly changed hands between Muslims and Christians, serving as the scene of battles and conflicts. After the final Christian conquest in 1434, under the reign of Pedro Fernández de Córdoba, the fortress was rebuilt and became part of Christian rule.

Over the centuries, the castle underwent various transformations. In the 18th century, it was adapted to serve as the residence of the Duke of Sessa
