Mais um Castelo "conquistado", desta vez foi o de Arévalo a uma hora de Madrid. Esta cidade na comunidade de Castilla y León assumiu grande relevância na juventude de Isabel, a futura rainha de Castela e a sua mãe (que tinha o mesmo nome) recebeu a vila por parte do seu marido o Rei D. Juan II. Talvez por isso e ainda que sem ter umas dimensões espectaculares, a visita ao Castelo de Arévalo é essencial para conhecer um pouco mais sobre a história de Espanha e um plano favorito para familias que vivem na zona de Madrid.
Another Castle "won" this time it was the one in Arévalo an hour from Madrid. This town in the Castilla y León community assumed great importance in the youth of Isabel, the future Queen of Castile and her mother (who had the same name) received the village of her husband King Juan II. Because of that, and even without having a spectacular dimensions, the castle of Arévalo is essential to know a little more about the history of Spain and a favorite plan for families living in the Madrid área.

Construido no século XII tem influências românicas e mudéjar, a sua construção partiu do Duque de Béjar, Álvaro de Zúñiga. No século XV passou a pertence aos próprios Reis Católicos (Isabel e Fernando) e mais tarde tornou-se numa prisão. Teve numa época mais recente uma curiosa função: a de silo de cereais e é por isso que hoje em vez de no seu interior estar uma recriação de como seria na época medieval está um museu de cereais, matéria-prima ligada á cidade de Arévalo. Tem na Torre de Menagem uma impressionante exposição de mais de cento e cinquenta tipos de cereais e depois de subir vários degraus chegamos ao topo onde podemos ver Arévalo e arredores.
Built in the twelfth century has Romanesque and Mudejar influences, its construction came from the Duke of Béjar, Álvaro de Zúñiga. In the fifteenth century came to belong to the Catholic Monarchs (Ferdinand and Isabel) themselves and later became a prison. In a more recent time it had a curious feature: the grain silo and that's why today instead of having inside a recreation of what it would be like in medieval times it is a museum of grain, one of the raw materials most linked the town of Arévalo. Has in the Torre de Menagem (Keep) an impressive display of over one hundred and fifty kinds of cereals and after climbing many steps we reached the top where we can see Arévalo and it's surroundings.
