A heritage site -Castrillo is considered one of the most beautiful villages in Spain

Castrillo dates back to the 16th century. It is in complete harmony with its natural surroundings made up entirely of local red and orange coloured stones. They contrast to the beautiful old arched wooden doors painted green, blue and red. The village sparkles in the Spanish sunlight and the stones seem to catch fire and glow at dusk.

The people of the village, known as "Maragatos" are proud of their traditions and customs. You can see their beautiful traditional dresses and dances every year at the "La Magdalena" festivities. The patron Saint of the village - Mary Magdalene is celebrated at the end of July.
