This castle is an excellent example of a defensive structure from the Middle Ages. It is built in the Mudejar style. The castle is located on the place where a defensive structure was still under the Romans. This castle with high walls and five towers is made of gray stone.

According to one version, the castle was first commanded by Sid, and then it was handed over to the Templars. Another version says that Alphonse the Fourth handed the castle to the monks of the Cluny order. The castle was abandoned in the 12th century due to the constant raids of the Moors.

In 1945, the castle was handed over to the youth associations. It was restored to house a school.
