Yéquera Castle, also known as Yecra Castle or Lacorvilla Castle, is located in the uninhabited medieval village of Yéquera. Its origins date back to a 10th-century Muslim fortification. In 1093, the Aragonese king Sancho Ramírez ordered the construction of a fortification to secure control of the newly conquered lands.

The town of Layana is dominated by the imposing presence of the restored tower of the castle, which currently serves as the headquarters for the interpretation center of the Roman site of Los Bañales.

The ruins found on the track that connects Luesia with the Pígalo pools are known as the castle of Sibirana. The ruins of the hermitage of Santa Quiteria also remain from this deserted area. This nucleus is part of a defensive line ordered to be built in the 10th century by King Sancho Garcés I of Pamplona. The sight of the towers erected on two stone masses gives an idea of the magnitude and engineering of these structures.

Uncastillo, located in the region of Cinco Villas in Aragon, is by the extent of its historical and architectural heritage a real treasure in itself. Around Uncastillo Castle, there are no less than six churches. They all date from a different era. The Church of San Martin in Tours, with its magnificent Romanesque porch and its expressive characters, clearly dates from the Romanesque period. The Church of San Andrés, with its colonnades and its coat of arms, is more from the Renaissance period. Don't miss, finally, the museum of the Tower. If you are tired of religious monuments, do not hesitate to get lost in the many streets of the village.

This village does not go unnoticed! In its center, you cannot miss its impressive castle. In the plains of the province of Zaragoza, its imposing keep is indeed visible from afar.

The Peña Felizana castle is located on a promontory in the town of Sos del Rey Católico. The fortification dates from the 12th century and has a walled complex in the center of which stands the keep.

On our way along the track from Luesia to the Pígalo pools, we come across the castle of Sibirana built to control the passage from Uncastillo and from Luesia through the Onsella river valley. In addition to the castle, there are remains of the hermitage of Santa Quiteria, both in the Aragonese Romanesque style and of a dozen houses at the foot of the castle on its south face.
