Land of Castles: Peñafiel

by Carmela71 - last update: Dec 9, 2004

Views of the castle from The Plaza del coso

Desde hoy, esta será la peña más fiel de Castilla…

From now it will be the most loyal mountain in Castilla.....

This was said on the 1013 after conquering from the Morrish….
Entrance to the Castle
Peñafiel is in the middle of Aranda de Duero (Burgos) and Valladolid just 30 km from my family house. I had been there a few times but never before visited the castle or the city (last time I did I was 16 and I went for the festival), so during this last trip to visit the family I took Stacy to visit it as he loves castles.

A village worth a visit if you are around

I love old stone buildings on sepia and b&w photos, so I leave the colour ones for Stacy (Beach_dog) and concentrate more in this ones, so yes, all the photos you see here are actually ours and not copied or old photos : - ))))
