An icon of the town of Miranda del Castañar, the castle and its architecture were the work of Pedro de Zúñiga in the 15th century. Today it remains in excellent condition and is worth visiting.

It is currently in a poor state of preservation, but it still shows its power. Built between the 14th and 15th centuries. It is worth visiting.

Zúñiga Castle: A 15th-century fortress, symbol of the former County of Miranda. Although it is not open to the public, its exterior and keep are impressive.
