This built on blocks of stone aguzaderas (grinding stone) that is kept in very good condition.
Built on a stronghold of Mozarabic s XIII, Ruiz Perez Esquivel and suffered from along the story several reconstructions. It lies in a valley, and not on a hill as usual, it is because they had a wealth of manatial who drank the transhumant ganaderias, which used to be stolen by the governor of Moron. And thus the protejian. In the ever lived noble, but monks warriors near the Order of Calatrava, and under the direction of Pablo Paez, that's why we do not have houses in the interior, but rough accommodations servian of defensive outposts, and saeteras in their matacanes walls.
