The castle of Ampudia, the most important and best preserved in Palencia. Built between the 13th and 15th centuries in the Gothic style, it has a trapezoidal plan and three square corner towers. The keep stands out. Its symmetrical façade is decorated with Flemish scaraguaitas and a coat of arms of the Duke of Lerma.
