Zufre retains a substantial section of its Moorish defensive walls from the period when the village was an Islamic fortification in the borderlands of al-Andalus. The walls run along the northern edge of the village and include a gateway tower that survives in reasonable condition. Unlike the more famous Moorish walls at Niebla or the Alcazaba in Badajoz, these walls are rarely visited and not marked with tourist infrastructure, which makes them all the more atmospheric.
The walls are best approached from the village centre — follow the streets uphill toward the higher part of the village and the wall sections become visible. There is no formal entrance or admission fee; the walls are simply part of the village's built fabric. The stone is local sandstone, heavily weathered, which blends into the hillside in a way that can make the walls surprisingly hard to spot until you are directly beside them.
