Peñafiel Castle →
Anchored atop a narrow rocky ridge commanding the Duero and Duratón river valleys, Peñafiel Castle stands impassive like a colossal stone ship stranded in the heart of Castile. This masterpiece of medieval military architecture, whose roots date back to the 10th century and whose current appearance stems from the 15th century, is one of Spain's most spectacular strongholds. Its elongated silhouette stretching over two hundred meters challenges the horizon, safeguarding centuries of knightly intrigues, landmark medieval literature, and the noble essence of a region forever bound to fine wine.
