Salvatierra Castle is located in the municipality of Calzada de Calatrava (Ciudad Real, Spain). Its period of greatest historical prominence focuses between the battles of Alarcos (1195) and Las Navas de Tolosa (1212), playing a decisive role as a preamble of the latter. Between 1198 and 1211 the Order of Calatrava installed its convent headquarters in this fortress and was consolidated as the Order of Salvatierra. In 1226 it was definitely abandoned when its last Muslim defenders handed it over to Christians in the context of Las Navas pacts. Since 1992, it has been part of the Cultural Interest Assets (BIC) catalog of the Regional Government of Castilla-La Mancha. Despite its advanced state of ruin, it still retains part of the donjon, numerous barrel vaults and large walled spaces that acted as albacar and barbican.
