Castillo de los Velasco

Highlight • Castle

Gothic-style castle, dating from the late fourteenth century, located in the center of the Cuzcurrita de Río Tirón municipality, in La Rioja Alta.
Built with ashlar masonry from the region, the castle stands out for its square-plan keep. In addition, the fortification took advantage of the river as a defense ditch.
Although you cannot visit its interior, it is worth contemplating it from the outside while walking along the banks of the Tirón River.

Elegant temple of Baroque work from the 18th century that stands next to the Tirón River. The church was built between 1753 and 1766 with stone blocks extracted from the quarries near the municipality. It stands out for its unique façade where curved elements are used that manage to convey the sensation of movement and dynamism. Right in the center of the façade rises a tower with an octagonal section body with columns.

Sajazarra Castle

Highlight • Castle

In the town of Sajazarra there is a magnificent walled castle.

Between the 12th and 13th centuries the town was fortified. In its beginnings there was a single tower that was destroyed to build, during the second half of the fifteenth century, the current castle.

In the center of the fortress is the keep and, although it is not currently visible, it is believed that there was also a defensive moat.

Following the winemaking tradition of the area, today this beautiful complex made up of the castle, the fortification, the Roman bridge and its gardens, is a winery.
