Built under the order of Garcimuñoz, a knight who accompanied King Alfonso VIII on his conquering crusade, the castle has passed through various owners in the following centuries until, in the 18th century, the Church of San Juan Bautista was built within its walls and use as a graveyard.
It has recently been restored to enable it to be visited by the public and a sample of very picturesque sculptural structures that were inspired by nature has been inaugurated inside the parade ground.

The Castillo de Garcimuñoz gives its name to the town itself and is the most impressive element in the center at the point you reach the town. Basically since it sticks out from the rest of the houses in the village!
