    This castle is private, and you cannot access its interior. In the 15th century the Padilla family built the castle. Until the mid-17th century the castle was owned by the Padilla family, with important positions in the court and very important in the nobility. Already in 1642, a descendant of the family became the owner of the castle, becoming one of the so-called Dukes of Abrantes. From that date on, the castle was practically abandoned.

    During the War of Independence it was used as a cemetery. Several tombs have been found and in the Second Carlist War the castle served as a refuge for the town's militias.

    Subsequently, it changed owners several times, until its current owner José Manuel Sierra Frade, who has made great improvements to the castle.
