Castillo de Alesga is a ruined Spanish fortress. It is situated on a hillside in San Pedro Valley near the town of San Salvador d'Alesga, in the council of Teverga, Asturias. It is situated near the Puerto de Ventana. A large square tower at its center measures about 20 x. The remains of a small circular tower and a section of drywall are visible.
