    Gothic-style castle, dating from the late fourteenth century, located in the center of the Cuzcurrita de Río Tirón municipality, in La Rioja Alta.
    Built with ashlar masonry from the region, the castle stands out for its square-plan keep. In addition, the fortification took advantage of the river as a defense ditch.
    Although you cannot visit its interior, it is worth contemplating it from the outside while walking along the banks of the Tirón River.

    Immediately from the bridge that crosses the Rio Tiron you can see the Castillo de los Velasco.

    The Castillo de los Velasco is a castle built between the 14th and 15th centuries by the powerful Velasco family, who ruled these lands in the Middle Ages. It is the most important and interesting castle of Mena and one of the most striking in the province of Burgos.
