Dominating the villa from a strategic hill, Berlanga de Duero Castle is a unique monumental complex. What we see today is the result of centuries of evolution: a robust Renaissance artistic fortress of the 16th century that embraces inside a medieval castle of the XV century. His shackling walls, which have been more than five metres thick, have been designed to resist the first attacks of modern artillery.
A Journey for Military History
The enclosure reflects the different phases of occupation and defence of the & quot; Duero Line & quot;.
Islamic and Reconquist Origin: It sits on an earlier Muslim fortress from the 10th and 11th centuries, from which remains of canvas and an old fence that protected the hill are still preserved.
The signage castle (S. XV): Built by the Tovar family, his lofty Tower of Homage stands out, with eight-line shields and as a symbol of power and noble residence.
The Articler's Fortress (S. XVI): Established about 1522, it has a trapezoidal plant and four huge circular cubes at corners with pipes designed specifically to avoid rebound enemy projectiles.
What you can't miss at the visit
To walk around the castle is to walk through a stone maze that keeps archaeological secrets and unparalleled views.
The Patio de Armas and the Patio Palacial: Spaces that separate the military life from the residential, enabling us to understand the daily life of nobility at the border.
Viewer of Valle del Duero: From its adarves and towers, spectacular panoramic views are obtained from the village of Berlanga, the Collegiata and the Vega of the River Escalote.
Rupsestre necropolis: Anthropomorphic tombs have been dug into the rock and have been spotted by the former local settlers.
Practical information for Traveller
The castle is integrated into Berlanga's Monumental Set. The visit at the Tourist Office (located at the tower of the Ducal Palace annex), where tickets can be purchased, is recommended. The complex also has an immersive virtual reconstruction that helps to visualise the lost splendor of the Renaissance palace once at its feet.
To explore Berlanga Castle is to discover one of the best examples of defensive engineering in Spain, an environment that breathes medieval history at every corner.
