Villagarcía de la Torre Castle

Description

Villagarcía de la Torre Castle was built in the 15th century to the site of older tower. It remained in good shape until the Peninsular War (1807-1814) when it was damaged. Only the keep and a few other vestiges have survived, like some square towers and a fair part of the outer walls.
