The oldest part was almost completely destroyed by an earthquake in 1117 and only a horseshoe-shaped construction remains, called “Round Tower”, of the 10th century.  The rest of the castle dates back to the 14th century: it was equipped with three drawbridges of which only one has been preserved.
In summer, the inner courtyard becomes a stage for the events of the Summer Festival.

The courtyard is open everyday from 10 am to 7 pm.

The Towers are open from late March to the end of October on Saturday, Sunday and holidays from 10 am to 1 pm and from 3 pm to 6 pm.

Towers admittance: adults euros 2.50; children under 13 years old free.
