It was built between the late 12th and early 13th centuries by Commander Fernán (Hernán) Rodríguez de Valbuena, becoming a funerary chapel for the Order. For centuries, it served as a fortified church overlooking the Duero River, and was linked to the now-vanished castle and other medieval chapels in the town. It suffered several collapses in the 19th and 20th centuries, until the original ruins had practically disappeared; the current structure is the one dedicated to Santa María del Castillo (Saint Mary of the Castle).

Hermitage of Santa María del Castillo (also known as the Hermitage of Santo Cristo or the Church of the Order of Saint John) in Castronuño: Located on Alto de la Muela, on the banks of the Duero River in Castronuño (Valladolid). A medieval building originally linked to the Military and Hospitaller Order of Saint John of Jerusalem, which established a commandery here.

The Plaza Mayor of Tordesillas was built in the 17th century as a perfect square, accessible from four streets. It features arcades, and the houses are two stories high, leaving space on the ground floor for shops, bars, and restaurants. The facades have large windows and balconies, ideally designed for viewing the various performances that have taken place there throughout history. Among other important buildings, the Town Hall is located in the plaza.

The medieval bridge over the Duero River, with its perfectly aligned arches, connects the historic center to the opposite bank. The monumental skyline of Tordesillas, highlighting the Plaza Mayor, the Casas del Tratado (Houses of the Treaty), and the Monastery of Santa Clara, all framed by reddish rooftops and the silhouette of the Church of San Antolín. The Duero River winds beneath the bridge, its reflections shifting with the changing light, creating a highly photogenic scene. Natural surroundings: riverside vegetation and, in autumn, golden hues that enhance the scenery.

The view of the Stone Bridge and Tordesillas from the viewpoint on Avenida de Portugal is considered one of the most beautiful panoramas of the town.

The bridge is especially beautiful to look at in the evening at sunset

You can cross over the dam without any danger, it is a road with little traffic...

It is a very worthwhile route. From what we have seen when doing it, there is a change in the route right at the viewpoint. Currently, the markings indicate that you have to continue along the path with the large green fence, which then joins up again with the path indicated on the route, it is like a shortcut. As a tip, if it has frozen or rained, wear good mountain footwear that allows you to climb muddy slopes, since there is one quite steep one that, with mud, is difficult to climb. Otherwise, a very pleasant route, not very long and with beautiful landscapes.
