Peñafiel Castle, also known as Racha Rachel Castle, is an old fortification located in the municipality of Zarza la Mayor, in the province of Cáceres.
The construction of the castle dates back to the 13th century. It was built on the remains of a fortress of Arab origin from the 9th century. King Alfonso IX conquered the fortress in 1212 and granted it to the Order of Alcántara, thus forming an important commandery.
