It is a rural castle dating from the twelfth and thirteenth centuries located next to the village of the same name and built on a watchtower, from which a large area of land could be seen. As a detail to say that it is visually connected with the Castle of Jaén, and we suppose that also with other high fortifications so that they could communicate with each other, from a distance.
It has a rectangular floor plan and has a parade ground, but both oblivion and abandonment have left this jewel of history, reduced to a memory that it will be difficult to maintain for the enjoyment of our future generations. However, it has been declared a Historic Monument and is a Site of Cultural Interest.
The historical data on the settlements in this area are almost lost in the mists of time, with evidence of an agricultural village from the 1st century AD.
