Resumen
The town of Jérica (Castellón, Spain), with its castle and small narrow streets enclosed within a walled complex, is of great heritage and landscape interest; the town has been designated a Historical Complex, while the castle is considered an Asset of Cultural Interest. The castle’s Torre del Homenaje or keep, which in recent years had severely deteriorated, is the subject of a restoration project and action carried out by the authors of this text. As well as proposing the archaeological excavation of the interior and exterior of the tower and the cleaning and protection of the rammed earth and ashlar constructions, this restoration has addressed complex issues in terms of conservation, architectural repercussions and impact on the heritage asset.
