Although of a lower perimeter than the castle of the Queen, the castle of the King, is built in masonry with reinforcement of ashlars in the corners and the tower presents a formidable aspect, having dimensions of about 7 by 9 meters of base and reaches about 20 meters of height and conserves the crenellated top. Together with the castle of the Queen it played a fundamental role during the war of the Two Pedros, although both fortresses, in spite of having been reinforced throughout the 14th century, could not prevent the town from falling into Castilian hands on two occasions. Both castles together with the fortified church of San Pedro formed the strong nuclei of resistance of the town.
