The castle closes for lunch between 1 PM and 4 PM. No restrooms are available inside. The interior is closed midday. First Tuesday of every month is closed. This castle is amazing!! Something very special about it that is hard to describe. Not only was it visually incredible, but it was also fully accessible. Very authentic castle still untouched by the masses. The rooftop battlement views were just awesome and the rooms had lots of frescoed decoration.

El Castillo de los Fonseca del siglo XV, es una obra maestra de la arquitectura mudéjar y gótica, una impresionante mole de ladrillo, protegida por un potente Foso. Coca was another Gothic Mudejar brick extravaganza, again built in the 15th century, and only a 30 minute drive away from La Mota. There is a large carpark in front of the and entry to the was €3. Once we got inside we saw that we only had 30 minutes before they closed for lunch (1PM - 4PM) so we did a whirlwind tour of the keep and rooftop before taking our time exploring the outer baily and then doing a circuit outside the walls. This was even more ornate than La Mota but was also very overgrown on the battlements and the route through the keep started with climbing four flights of a dilapadated spiral staircase, not Deb's favourite thing! Mum and I went on ahead , leaving Deb to go at her own pace. The rooftop battlement views were just awesome and the rooms had lots of frescoed decoration. We spent about another 30 minutes walking around the interior of the walls and then Mum and Deb went to find a cafe and I did a circuit of the exterior. Like La Mota the walls appear deceptively low as the moat is barely visible until up close and is on low lying ground rather than a hill. The restoration gives you a chance to see the as it was in its heyday, rather than being a crumbling pile of authentic bricks. A really interesting place to visit with information provided in English and an English speaking man on reception. It must be said that the stairs up the towers are challenging with large risers and no hand rails. But we are two 74 year old not particularly fit pensioners and we managed OK. It is really worth the effort. It’s very well preserved from old times. City itself has not much to offer, nearby are some nice cheap restaurants. I do like castles so i am visiting various ones around. In real life it much smaller) Great experience, after the restore of 1956, the looks great and the inside rooms are worth visiting. Symbolic ticket, kind reception, see pictures. This is amazing!! Something very special about it that is hard to describe. Walk around the periphery to take it all in. Unfortunately we didn’t make an interior tour but we would have enjoyed seeing the inside. Amazing construction and interesting history. Amazing. One of the best stops on my Spanish trip. I hired a car in Madrid and drove out to Coca to visit this stunning castle. Not only was it visually incredible, but it was also fully accessible, I was able to walk the walls inside and out, explore the interior, and even climb up and out onto the roof. If that's not amazing enough, I was able to do that was barely anyone else present as the is aittle off the beaten path. The town of Coca is definitely worth a wander too, it's beautiful and historic - even scoring a mention in the Astrix and Obelisk comics. Definitely one of my highlights! Stayed in this town of Costa. Nice visit while there. Piękne miejsce Es un estilo diferente a lo que suele verse en castillos. Me ha resultado una gratísima sorpresa por las dimensiones y belleza. Encuentro práctico darle uso adecuado tras su restauración, como es el caso. Very authentic still untouched by the masses. There’s a nice self guided walking tour climbing up quite a big amount of tall steps that showcase the convergence of Mudejar design and Gothic architecture. Amazing to stop by. free to check out the outside and surrounding moat and a low fee to check out the interior! Make sure to come in the morning or evening interior closed mid day Tickets are €3, you’d buy them inside to climb up to the top and see the chambers. There are no restrooms inside. Be warned that it’s closed on the first Tuesday of every month - it’s open on other Tuesdays, unlike what Google Maps say. Por dentro no te pierdes nada solo subes una torre y bajas por otra pero por fuera es espectacular Merece la pena acercarse a verlo. Nice but a lot smaller than imagined from the photos and located in the middle of nowhere with no facilities for visitors Excelente experiencia gracias a Miriam, llegamos justos dr tiempo y nos permitio la visita teniendo en cuenta que estabamos de ruta de castillos, la experiencua totalmente recomendable para ir con amigos y disfrutar de la historia y muy interesante y divertido la sala de las escuchas Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
