The castle ruins are of great historical and tourist interest in the Peña de Santa Cruz area and also offer beautiful views. The origin of it is unknown for sure, but it is considered to be from pre-Roman times, and which later formed part of a larger group to defend the lands at the beginning of the 10th century and which was rebuilt in this century by King Ramiro II of León .
