The square has a porticoed structure, typical of medieval Castilian towns, with stone and wood arcades that house old mansions and traditional shops.

Castrojeriz Castle

At the highest part of the town of Castrojeriz is its castle, which is more than 900 meters high and offers impressive views of the town and the area. But this castle only has its walls and its shape as it has fallen over the years.

View of Castrojeriz Castle

Highlight • Castle

Castrojeriz, an important stage of the Camino de Santiago, was occupied by Celts, Romans, Visigoths, Arabs and finally Christians from the year 882 and in its castle, which was built by the Arabs and reformed in the 14th century, important battles took place between Christians and Moors. Very irregular in shape, it was surrounded by a moat and a barbican with the most important body displaced to the west, which is made up of three parts. The one in the south is very destroyed. The one in the center, in which the homage tower must have been, communicates with the parade ground through a small ogival door and the western part had a tower.

From the 13th century, and expanded in the 17th century. The Annunciation stands out with its Gothic façade and the main altarpiece with paintings by Mengs. Three naves, it contains altarpieces, tombs, paintings, images... the image of the Virgin of Manzano from the 13th century stands out.
On the main altar, a Rococo altarpiece stands out, whose central motif is the Annunciation by Mengs, chamber painter of Charles III. On the sides are the tombs of the Counts of Castro, Juan de Mendoza, Marquis of la Hinojosa, and Diego Sarmiento, Count of Ribadavia.
