The castle is built on masonry structures from various periods between the 12th and 14th centuries, which bear the signs of destruction by the Spanish in 1611. An ancient stronghold and the scene of fierce battles, it constitutes, at least in its original layout, an excellent example of medieval military architecture from the 12th century. The construction of the castle probably dates back to the first half of the 10th century.
