Almansa’s Castle
Our origins, fortress that watches from the Cerro del Águila the passage of time and the evolution of Almansa. It is a must-see for every tourist who visits the city. Its walls keep the passage of time and its privelegiadas views allow a unique panoramic view of the city.
The origins of Almansa Castle date back to the late eleventh century, although its profile must have been very different from the present, being able to be a watchtower or a fortified enclosure similar to a small citadel, being possible that the oldest existing walls at lower levels are from this time.
Church of the Assumption

Almansa Reservoir
The Almansa Reservoir is in a basin where wadis and streams converge, it does not regulate any river. Between 1530 and 1538 a masonry wall was built to contain the strong floods caused by rain. Later, during the reign of Felipe II, between 1584 and 1586, a new, more solid dam was built. On its façade is carved the crown that reads: Soli Deo honor et glotia 1584 (Only to God the honor and glory 1584).
This work of hydraulic engineering was a pioneer in Europe and is currently one of the oldest in Spain in use. It is also an observatory of biodiversity and a center of attraction for ecological tourism.
