It can be reached by following the Canal de Castilla from Cabezón de Pisuerga towards Alar del Rey. It is located about 5 km from the center of Cabezón. It is one of the 49 locks that the Canal de Castilla had. They were built to overcome the difference in elevation, allowing the passage of barges through a system of gates that leveled the water.

It was built in the 15th century by the Vivero family, nobles of Galician origin, as a stately residence. The castle is modeled after the Valladolid school and was conceived more as a residence than as a military fortress. Throughout its history, it has had various palatial uses and was also the headquarters of the Cortes of Castilla y León. Currently, it has been restored and converted into a medieval museum. This castle, which was the headquarters of the Cortes of Castilla y León between 1983 and 2007, is property of the Provincial Council of Valladolid and is currently used as an interpretation center for the castles. 🏰🌟
