It is known for its characteristic reddish colour, the result of the use of local rodeno stone in its construction.

This castle, one of the best preserved in Aragon, is located in a strategic position on a rock formation, which gives it spectacular views of the surroundings, especially the Jiloca valley. Its history dates back to the Bronze Age, although the current structure dates from the 12th to the 14th centuries.

It is one of the best preserved castles in the area. Its reddish color characteristic of the region and its unique architecture that takes advantage of the natural environment makes it one of the most impressive and curious castles in the region. It is also an ideal place to stop and enjoy the panoramic views.
