The current castle was built in the 15th century on the site of an earlier 13th-century fortification, which belonged to the Order of Alcántara. In 1470, Juan de Ulloa and his wife, María de Sarmiento, rebuilt it in a palatial style, placing their coats of arms above the entrance. Juan supported the Portuguese cause in the War of the Castilian Succession and died defending the castle in 1476; his widow then defended it for a time.
