| Description |
English: The Mota Castle in Medina del Campo (Valladolid, Spain). The word “Mota” refers to an artificial mountain built to defend the castle better, this mound was called in early English: motte. The Mota fortress had a military function and it also was a royal dungeon. The castle was built between the 12th and 15th Centuries. It has a coat with its own drawbridge (today fixed), an outer curtain (for artillery), an inner curtain (with arrow slits for archers and guards) surrounding a large courtyard, and a great square tower (which is the Keep).
The castle was left and collapsed, but was recovered after the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). It is the first monumental building in Medina declared Good with Cultural Interest. Español: Castillo de la Mota en Medina del Campo (Valladolid). Esta fortaleza tenía una función militar y además fue prisión del reino. La construcción del castillo discurre a lo largo de los siglos XII a XV. Tiene una muralla exterior, más moderna, preparada para colocar artillería, y otra interior con una torre de homenaje desde la que se divisa un amplio patio de armas.
El castillo quedó en ruinas tras y la Guerra Civil (1936-1939) fue reconstruido, así se convirtió en el primer edificio de Medina del Campo en ser declarado Bien de Interés cultural. |
