Peñafiel, Medieval municipality in Valladolid Province, Spain.
Located at 754 meters above sea level, Peñafiel extends across the fertile valley of the Duero River in northern Castile and León region.
The municipality, established in 1013, developed into a central medieval settlement with nineteen churches and a strategic defensive position at its hilltop.
The Plaza del Coso represents a medieval square where the municipality retains ownership of windows and balconies, auctioning viewing rights during traditional events.
The town contains numerous underground caves that maintain constant temperatures, making them effective storage facilities for the wines of Ribera del Duero.
The municipality holds exclusive rights to all private home openings around Plaza del Coso during public celebrations, continuing a medieval practice.
