Montezuma Castle

 

Montezuma Castle is located in central Arizona, and was built by the Sinagua people between 1100 and 1425 A.D.

The main dwelling five stories tall. It is not a castle, nor has anything to do with Montezuma.

Building in the cliff enabled the Sinagua people to avoid negative effects from nearby Beaver Creek flooding. At its peak 50 people lived here.
