Naraío Castle, Medieval castle ruins in Narón, Spain.

The stone fortress contains three defensive walls and a central tower that stands prominently above the Castro River valley below.

Built in the 12th century, the castle became a stronghold of nobleman Fernán Pérez de Andrade during the 14th-century civil wars in Spain.

The castle received recognition as a Cultural Heritage Site in 1994, marking its status in Spain's collection of protected historical monuments.

Visitors can reach the castle through marked hiking trails, with the main entrance located near the parking area on the eastern side.

The castle features an underground water cistern system that supplied water to its inhabitants during extended periods of isolation.
