Take a tour of Coca Castle in Spain – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

In the pine covered forests of Segovia lies the magnificent Coca Castle.

This medieval fortress was built in the fifteenth century by the extravagant Alonso de Fonseca, the Archbishop of Seville.

The castle is known for both its tactical military brilliance and beautiful interior design.

The quintessence of Mudéjar design, Coca Castle is a fusion of Christian and Muslim architecture.

Today this former military fortress is used as a school for foresters.

Equally glorious now as it was in medieval days, Coca Castle boasts power and elegance.
