This renaissance castle was constructed by Fernando II of León and was the seat of las Cortes in 1202. It makes up part of the old town, set within the town's ancient city walls. It was almost destroyed in 1808 during the Spanish War of Independence but the huge Torre del Caracol (tower of the snail) survived (see the impressive Mudejar coffered ceiling.) Surrounded by beautiful gardens, the castle's interior has classical decorative features such as tapestries, forged lamps, coffered ceilings, as well as Spanish bricks and woods. Its spectacular rooms are specially equipped to be an ideal location for social gatherings. The guestrooms are bright and welcoming with full bathrooms. The restaurant offers local cuisine: Bacalao a la tranca (cod with boiled egg), arroz a la zamorana (rice and pork dish), dos y pingada (fried egg and bacon on bread) and tocino de cielo (custard caramel). In addition to double rooms with either two beds or one queensize bed, the Parador also offers suites, superior rooms with king size bed, and superior room with two beds. Half or full board is required on weekends 1 July through 30 September.
