Built in 1475 by order of Diego Hurtado de Mendoza, 1st Duke of the Infantado, on the site of a former Romanesque-Mudéjar church.
Its architecture is Isabelline Gothic, with a square floor plan, cylindrical towers, and an octagonal keep.
It served as the palatial residence of the powerful Mendoza family, who even established a literary court there.
Declared a Historic-Artistic Monument in 1949. Today it houses a Medieval Interpretation Center, with exhibits of tapestries, armor, furniture, and audiovisual presentations about life in the Middle Ages.
