Located to the south of Castilblanco, this town is surrounded by ferruginous springs. In it we find a castle from the Almohad period, devoid of walls and decoration and built in an octagonal plan on a high rock to the south of the town, on a difficult-to-reach peak.

Herrera del Duque is a small town of Roman origin located at a strategic road junction between Badajoz and Ciudad Real and another with Córdoba and Ávila. The village is a good starting point for the hike up to the castle on the mountain above the village.
