萨夫拉城堡,西班牙

萨夫拉城堡矗立在卡尔德雷罗斯山脉高耸的砂岩山丘上。12世纪,西班牙北部的几个基督教王国从摩尔人手中夺取了这一地区,他们在一座古老堡垒遗址上建造了这座城堡,以保卫两个势力之间的边境地区。多年来,这座城堡经受了无数次战争的考验,包括基督教王国发动的反对西班牙穆斯林统治的军事行动,以及14世纪的卡斯蒂利亚内战。15世纪末,战争结束后,萨夫拉城堡的战略地位不再重要,开始变得破败不堪。1971年,城堡最后一任典狱长的后代唐·安东尼奥·桑兹·波罗从西班牙政府手中买下了这座城堡的遗址。随后,他了30年时间修复城堡。如今,比起历史,你更有可能在银幕上看到萨夫拉城堡,因为它曾被用作《权力的游戏》第六季的取景地。

Castle of Zafra, Spain

Perched atop a sandstone outcrop high in the Sierra de Caldereros stands the Castle of Zafra. When the Christian kingdoms of northern Spain took the region from its Moorish defenders in the 12th century, they built this castle on the site of an older fortress to defend the borderland between the two powers. Over the years, it withstood countless battles of the Reconquista—the military campaigns waged by Christian kingdoms against Muslim rule in Spain—and of the Castilian Civil War of the 14th century.

When the fighting ended in the late 15th century, the Castle of Zafra was no longer strategically important and began to fall into ruin. In 1971, Don Antonio Sanz Polo, a descendant of the castle's last warden, bought the site from the Spanish state. He then spent the next 30 years restoring the castle. These days, you're more likely to see the Castle of Zafra on the screen than in a history book—it doubled as the Tower of Joy in the sixth season of 'Game of Thrones.'
