The castle is a ruin, but the set up to hear Isabel and the Trío de Janeiro was wonderful

Ruins of a castle destroyed by the French in 1810 during the War of Independence. In the keep there is a steel spiral staircase with the last occupant (do not arrange) and to a viewing platform. Nice view (but for a nice view it is better to continue to Urueña).

Well, for what's left of Castillo, it's not bad.

The Castle of the Quijada of Villagarcía de Campos. The first historical data on this Castle-Palace date back to 1336. In its time it was a large-scale work, with tall towers and a drawbridge. Jeromín, the natural son of Emperor Charles I of Spain, who later became known as Don Juan of Austria, was educated there under anonymity. Later, during the 19th century, the castle was devastated by the French army in 1810 during the War of Independence. Since 2014, different works have been carried out to rehabilitate the castle, carrying out different actions in this fortress, mainly focused on cleaning works, consolidation of walls and tower, archaeological studies, as well as the installation of information signs and the incorporation of measures to make the castle accessible. right.
