Remains of an ancient fortress of Islamic origin erected at the top of a small hill near the Corneros River. The castle was located in a large border space between Granada and Castilla in a permanent state of war.

The ruined castle, built on a small hill near the Corneros River, has an irregular plan and from the castle you can see the castles of Tirieza, Puentes, Vélez Rubio and Vélez Blanco.
