Peñafiel Castle, also known as Racha Rachel Castle, is an old fortification located in the municipality of Zarza la Mayor, in the province of Cáceres.
The construction of the castle dates back to the 13th century. It was built on the remains of a fortress of Arab origin from the 9th century. King Alfonso IX conquered the fortress in 1212 and granted it to the Order of Alcántara, thus forming an important commandery.
Built during Muslim rule of the Iberian Peninsula on a strategic rock outcrop above the Ergas River on the border between Spain and Portugal, the Castle is a stunning site to visit that will transport you to another era.
