The castle of Villalba de los Alcores is a military fortress declared a historical-artistic monument in 1931. It is believed that this fortress was part of a defensive complex that arose from border disputes between the kingdoms of León and Castilla in the 12th century. Together with other nearby castles, it formed a strategic defensive line for communication and mutual aid.
