It is located on a hill and there is a short walk. The entrance is by a dirt road that goes to the left. It seems that dates back to the X or XII centuries. Destroyed in the 14th century, it was rebuilt in the 15th. The patio is so large that it is divided by an inner wall. Visit a water tank, a small, but small exhibition and a weapons room. It is otherwise completely empty apart from an "ethnographic museum" homespun. The wall can be bypassed.

Muy bonito, pero estaba cerrado por obras y no lo indicaban en ningún sitio. Tambien se puede visitar un anfiteatro romano que han descubierto hace poco.
