Montezuma Castle
Situated near Camp Verde, Montezuma Castle features one of the country’s best-preserved cliff dwellings. Dating back to the 12th century and used by the Sinagua civilization, this five-story structure of 20 rooms resembles an ancient high-rise apartment complex. Although European-Americans named it after the Aztec emperor, the dwelling actually predates the birth of Montezuma II by 100 years. The site features a visitor center and museum that displays an assortment of relics and artifacts such as shell ornaments, stone tools, bone needles and millstones once used for grinding corn.
