Fuentidueña has remains of Romanesque walls, several gates and towers. Among them, the Puerta de Alfonso VIII stands out, part of the remains of the castle that today is in ruins. The castle, located in the upper part of a large walled area, had the function of a fortress and served as a last stronghold in case of attack on the population. 😊🏰
