Castillo de Argüeso, Medieval castle in Argüeso, Spain
The stone castle stands on a hilltop controlling the route between the coast and Castilla through Valle de Saja, featuring Gothic architecture and defensive towers.
Built between the 13th and 15th centuries, the fortress belonged to the Casa de la Vega-Mendoza until the 19th century and received cultural heritage status in 1983.
The castle hosts temporary exhibitions, historical reenactments during July, concerts, medieval workshops, and artisan markets throughout the year for the local community.
The castle opens daily except December 24, 25, 31, January 1 and 6, with varying hours by season and admission fees of 3€ for adults.
Local craftsmen from the Sobaler family restored the castle using native chestnut and oak wood, maintaining traditional construction techniques.
