Feria Castle

Feria, Spain

Built from a preexisting Moorish fort by the powerful local Feria house, Feria's impeccably revamped 15th-century castle enjoys spectacular panoramas in every direction from its hilltop perch; climb up onto the roof of the Torre del Homenaje for the full view. Inside, spread over three floors, is the excellent Museo Señorío de Feria, with detailed Spanish-language displays on the Feria family and its other nearby castles.

Very cool place and very nice view! (And the entrance was only 2€!)

Very impressive monument, and well restored, specially inside the main huge tower. I wish the government gave more funds to fully restore the external walls, as one of the external towers looks like about to collapse. They should also translate all the panels into English, as they contain a lot of information about the history of the castle that foreigners will miss. Maybe with modern phone you can just take pictures of the panels and translate them on-the-fly with google translator.

A steep road leads to the castle which offers a staggering vista over the village on the foot of the castle and over wide landscape. The museum is fine as well, but opening hours are limited.

Perfect to visit with family. Awesome views from the top of the castle.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
