    Castle built in the 15th century. In the year 1393, King Henry III granted the title of Villa to Arenas de San Pedro, handing over its lordship to Ruy López Dávalos, constable of Castile, who began its construction.
    It is known as the Castle of the Sad Countess, because after the execution of Don Álvaro de Luna in 1453, Juan II allowed the town to remain in the possession of his widow, Doña Juana de Pimentel, popularly known by this nickname.
