The only remaining remnant of Sarria's medieval castle. With its square layout and stone walls, it witnessed centuries of battles and the passage of thousands of pilgrims to Santiago.
It's worth a quick stop for a photo and a medieval feel before continuing on your way. Just don't be overconfident: Sarria's slopes always have their way.
