The Monfragüe Castle is a consolidated ruin fortress, located in the heart of the Monfragüe National Park, within the Spanish municipality of Torrejón el Rubio, province of Cáceres, Extremadura.
The Arabs conquered these lands in the year 713 and named them Al-Mofrag, which means "the abyss." They were the ones who built the fortress here in the year 811 over the remains of an ancient fortification primarily used by the Celts to defend themselves from the Romans, and later used by the Romans themselves as a strategic lookout point.
