Sepúlveda is a spectacular medieval town that boasts a wealth of historical and artistic treasures: Plaza Mayor, Church of El Salvador, Church of Our Lady of the Rock, House of the Proaño or Moro family, Old Prison... It is surrounded by the Duratón and Caslilla rivers. A winding landscape of gorges and ravines gives this town a privileged position, designated a Historic-Artistic Site.

Very interesting... especially routes in autumn and spring when it rains so that the transit through the sands of the pine forests is not so complicated.

Cuéllar Castle, also known as the Castle-Palace of the Dukes of Alburquerque, is one of the town's most iconic monuments and has a rich history spanning several centuries. Construction of the castle began in the 11th century and was completed in the 17th century. Over the centuries, it has been expanded and renovated in various architectural styles, including Gothic and Renaissance. Its historical owners include Álvaro de Luna and Beltrán de la Cueva, as well as successive Dukes of Alburquerque. Currently, the castle houses the Cuéllar Tourist Office, and guided and dramatized tours are offered on weekends.

The trip, the gardens, and the building itself are worth it.

Fuentidueña has remains of Romanesque walls, several gates and towers. Among them, the Puerta de Alfonso VIII stands out, part of the remains of the castle that today is in ruins. The castle, located in the upper part of a large walled area, had the function of a fortress and served as a last stronghold in case of attack on the population. 😊🏰

It is an extraordinary and beautiful medieval Castilian town. But it has all its structures adapted to the modern age. Establishments and businesses abound everywhere. It is very well prepared for tourism.

Documented since 1306, the castle has witnessed various events over the centuries. It was property of the Duchy of Alburquerque and hosted illustrious guests such as the kings of Castile, such as Juan I and Queen Leonor, as well as María de Molina. This castle is a historical treasure and a living testimony to the grandeur and diversity of architectural styles over the centuries. 🏰🌿

The old town of Sepúlveda with its stairs and alleys is recognized as a national cultural asset. The center of the old town is the Plaza Mayor, surrounded by old stone houses.
