The castle of Peñaranda de Duero, located in Peñaranda de Duero, Spain, is a well preserved Gothic castle in Burgos province. The castle originally dates from the 10th century but reforms by Counts of Miranda del Castañar in the 15th century changed much of the building. Today the castle stands at the start of a defensive wall that formerly surrounded the town, of which only the crenellated arch of "Las Monjas" still stands.

  • El castillo de Peñaranda de Duero es una fortaleza ubicada sobre una colina de las proximidades del núcleo burgalés de Peñaranda de Duero. Su primera construcción data del siglo XI, con el fin de frenar el avance árabe y facilitar su expulsión de la península durante la Reconquista. La construcción siguió el diseño del castillo de Peñafiel. En el centro, destaca la torre del homenaje, de planta cuadrada, que cuenta con cuatro pisos de vigas de madera. La antigua muralla, de la que se conservan escasos paramentos, tenía un gran grosor y protegía el castillo y el caserío actual. (es)

  • The castle of Peñaranda de Duero, located in Peñaranda de Duero, Spain, is a well preserved Gothic castle in Burgos province. The castle originally dates from the 10th century but reforms by Counts of Miranda del Castañar in the 15th century changed much of the building. Today the castle stands at the start of a defensive wall that formerly surrounded the town, of which only the crenellated arch of "Las Monjas" still stands. The castle was an important point on the fortified line which existed between the medieval Christian Kingdom of Castile and the Moor state of Al Andalus during the 10th century. The castle is a narrow walled precinct, with a four story keep rising from the center. The keep features a rooftop terrace, battlements, a gallery of machiolations, and three additional square towers, two of which flank the ogival arch that marks the entrance. The walls are solid stone ashlar stone, although much of the keep features decorative wooden beams. Today, the Castle of Peñaranda de Duero serves as one of the many historical monuments and tourist attractions in the area. Tourists are charged a small admission fee between 1 and 2 euros for entry.

  • El castillo de Peñaranda de Duero es una fortaleza ubicada sobre una colina de las proximidades del núcleo burgalés de Peñaranda de Duero. Su primera construcción data del siglo XI, con el fin de frenar el avance árabe y facilitar su expulsión de la península durante la Reconquista. La construcción siguió el diseño del castillo de Peñafiel. En el centro, destaca la torre del homenaje, de planta cuadrada, que cuenta con cuatro pisos de vigas de madera. La antigua muralla, de la que se conservan escasos paramentos, tenía un gran grosor y protegía el castillo y el caserío actual. De la construcción, el aspecto más interesante es la perfección de sus proporciones, lo cual convierte al castillo de Peñaranda en una de las mejores construcciones históricas de la provincia de Burgos. El 3 de junio de 1931, el conjunto formado por el castillo, el Palacio de Avellaneda y el pueblo fue declarado Monumento Histórico Artístico, siendo uno de los lugares de mayor interés turístico de Burgos. Posteriormente el castillo fue protegido por el Decreto de 22 de abril de 1949 y la Ley 16/1985 sobre el Patrimonio Histórico Español. (es)
