Its construction began as a monastery in 1088 at a time when Alfonso VI reigned. Then he became fortress due to the threat of the Christian kingdom and possible entries of Muslims by the Alcantara bridge. With the total expulsion of Muslims from the Iberian Peninsula, the fortress gradually lost its defense function relegated to oblivion. After various vicissitudes, and under threat of demolition in 1874 was named a Historic-Artistic National. Today, in the XXI century, the castle is completely restored and after serving successively as junior college, home of the Castile-La Mancha and university residence, now does as a youth hostel in the Regional Government of Castile-La Mancha and venue for courses and conferences. From the castle you can see a panoramic view of the city of Toledo and the Tagus River, which runs alongside, in what was the medieval citadel.
