Coca

Coca, (Segovia - Castilla y León) Spain

This 15th century castle in Coca is one of the few fortresses that was not built on top of a hill.  It is made of brick, typical of Mudejar style architecture which emerged as an architectural style in the 12th century on the Iberian peninsula.  This style is the result of Muslim and Christian cultures living side by side and is considered a reinterpretation of Western cultural styles through Islamic influences.
