Let us show you the Castle in Peñafiel.
Built in the 15th century by don Pedro Girón, master of the Calatrava Order. It is owned by the town hall. Totally restores, it houses the W**e Museum.
Its ground plan is unusual among the castles in the Valladolid area, due to the architect's need to adapt the structure to the land. The present castle is unfinished. The rooms have vaulted ceilings. The way they are connected to the straight staircase has led experts to relate it to the towers of Fuensaldaña, Torrelobatón, Fuentes de Valdepero and Belmonte de Campos, attributed to Gómez Díaz de Isla.
Peñafiel represented, together with its castle, a strategic point along the Duero defensive line, both for the Christian and the Muslim troops, around the 9th and 10th centuries. Upon taking it from the very hands of the Moorish leader Almanzor, in 1013, Sancho García had the first stones laid and proclaimed it ‘the most faithful rock in Castile’.

🏰 En pleno corazón de la Ribera del Duero se alza el imponente Castillo de Peñafiel, una fortaleza del siglo XIV declarada Monumento Histórico Nacional en 1917. En su interior se encuentra el Museo Provincial del Vino, un espacio que acerca al visitante a la historia, la cultura y los secretos de la elaboración del vino en la provincia de Valladolid.

La visita permite recorrer sus dependencias, conocer herramientas tradicionales, tipos de prensas, sistemas de medida, botellas y el apasionante mundo de la cata. Además, su singular arquitectura, adaptada al cerro sobre el que se asienta y con forma de gigantesco navío, convierte al castillo en uno de los grandes símbolos del patrimonio vallisoletano.

🍇 Patrimonio, historia y cultura del vino se unen en una experiencia única que no puede faltar en tu visita a la provincia de Valladolid.

Let us show you the Church of San Nicolas de Bari in Burgos.
Construction started in the 15th century. The simplicity of its façade is in contrast with the richness of its interior. Particularly noteworthy are the stone altarpiece by Simón de Colonia, gothic sepulchres and a Renaissance arch in the sepulchre of Fernando de Mena and María Sáez de Oña.

Get to know one of the masterpieces of Gothic architecture and the most emblematic monument of the city of Burgos. The slender Cathedral of Santa María in the Castilian city has been astonishing residents, pilgrims and tourists for 800 years. Its characteristic towers, which rise up to touch the sky, its prodigious dome with its starry vault, its beautiful chapels, its spectacular choir, the Golden Staircase that became so famous that it served as a model for the grandiose staircase of the Paris Opera and the great jewels of sacred art that are kept within its walls have earned it the declaration as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
Visit this landmark of the Camino de Santiago, built in the likeness of the great French chapels of Notre-Dame and Reims, with the participation of the best architects and sculptors from various periods. An extraordinary temple from the spiers of its façade to its more than 18 chapels, among which the Contestable chapel stands out, considered a cathedral in itself, and the Santa Tecla chapel, a baroque jewel signed by the great Alberto Churriguera. Come and enjoy it!

As you may already know, the 2026 Nobel Prize in Literature has been awarded to Anne Carson.
But did you know that she once walked the Camino de Santiago from France and later wrote a remarkable essay about this transformative experience?

Antes de convertirse este jueves en Premio Nobel de Literatura, Anne Carson ya había recorrido a pie buena parte de España, una experiencia que décadas más tarde transformaría en literatura con su ensayo 'Tipos de agua. El Camino de Santiago'.
