The Castle of the Moral, also known as the Castle of Lucena, is a military fortress located in the municipality of Lucena, Córdoba, Spain. It is a significant historical site that dates back to the arrival of the Almohad Empire in the villages in 1148. The castle was strategically built to safeguard the Cora Cabra-Baena, which was possibly very unstable and governed through the control of North-South commercial caravans.
