A fabulous old town with cobbled streets, that partly lies around the base of the hill on the top of which lies the prominent ruins of an ancient castle. The town was first granted a charter in 974, and may then have been called Castrum Sigerici. However there are bronze age findings there dating back to 1500 BC, and it is believed Augustas built the Roman fort Sisaraca on the hilltop. Several nice albergues and bars in the town.
