The first two castles have been described above, at the corresponding towns. Castle of Alaró rises above the hill of the same name, and has a view over most of the Majorcan plain. Its distant origin is still unknown. Historical facts claim that, upon the island’s Muslim conquest in 902-903, a group of native people resisted inside the castle for eight years and five months. The castle is closed by a wall, which follows the unevenness of the ground. Nowadays, five towers still stand, two of which are located at the inner entrance gates. Five wells are preserved, one of which is probably the only remaining sign of the Arab building. One of Majorca’s most famous legends, the one about Cabrit and Bassa, takes place here. These two warriors had opposed the conquest of Alfonso the Liberal in 1285, making fun of the king's name (Anfós, at the time), claiming that groupers (anfosos in Catalan) are to be eaten, a fact that cost them the king’s sentence to be burnt slowly over a good fire, like they do with kids.
