The castle of Peñafiel, in the province of Valladolid, is a spectacular 10th century fortress that sits in an elongated shape, like a ship, on a hill. This magnificently preserved medieval jewel was conquered by Almanzor himself.

Peñafiel Castle, located in the province of Valladolid, is an imposing fortress built in the 10th century, although it was the interventions that took place between the 14th and 15th centuries that gave it its current appearance.
It stands out for its privileged location on top of a hill, offering panoramic views of the Ribera del Duero wine region. With its thick stone walls and its keep, the castle is a fascinating testimony to medieval architecture and houses the Provincial Wine Museum, which shows the wine-growing importance of the area.
