Aquelcabos Medieval Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Achecabos Bridge is commonly called a Roman bridge (since it was built on a previous bridge, predictably Roman). It is the oldest bridge in Arenas de San Pedro. It is expected that it was built in the eleventh century, so it is of medieval origin. It was widely used by travelers and transhumant shepherds, previously paying the toll or barge.
It consists of three arches, the central one being the largest of all. Its firm has been restored with cobblestone imitating the original. On both sides there is a one meter high stone parapet and various parts of its layout have been repaired with cement.

Castle of the Constable Dávalos (Castle of the Sad Countess)

Highlight • Castle

Castle built in the 15th century. In the year 1393, King Henry III granted the title of Villa to Arenas de San Pedro, handing over its lordship to Ruy López Dávalos, constable of Castile, who began its construction.
It is known as the Castle of the Sad Countess, because after the execution of Don Álvaro de Luna in 1453, Juan II allowed the town to remain in the possession of his widow, Doña Juana de Pimentel, popularly known by this nickname.
