In the set of wetlands of Laguardia is the Prao de la Paul Lagoon, one of the four lagoons that make up this ecosystem.

The wetland has a bird observatory.

Documented for the first time in 1367, when Enrique de Trastámara gave it to Carlos El Malo of Navarra, it is likely that it was built during the reign of Alfonso VIII to strengthen the area's defense against Navarre. It is Romanesque in style and is made up of a walled outer enclosure with a polygonal plan with seven sides. The keep, with four floors, has a square floor plan and is attached to the wall at its eastern end. The castle is located on a hill next to a meander of the Ebro river, a strategic place next to the Briones castle to protect the area from Navarrese attacks.
