From here it is dominated by the whole vega of the river tera, and there are beautiful panoramic views of the river, the stone bridge (by which passes the road and the whole new area of the village built on the east bank of the tera.

If for something the city of Sanbria stands out is for the beautiful castle that is in a kind of summit but very close at the same time of the main square of the village. It is a wonderful fortress preserved in a spectacular way that it seems that it could keep harboring people inside. the castle looks like those that appear in the tales of princes and princesses and was built in the second half of the xv century, under the mandate of the count iv of benavente, don rodrigo alfonso pimentel, therefore his name and therefore also the two shields that are in the main gate, which belong to his last name and his wife. the castle is of regular plant and joto in the center is a homage tower that has several plants and is protected by a bridge. This tower is in a magnificent state of conservation and from it you can contemplate incredible views of healing. It is a building that needs to be carefully contemplated, as it has hundreds of precious details that can easily pass unnoticed, such as, for example, the cavities that are in some parts and used to be able to throw the arrows from the inside.

The castle of the village of Sanbria is located on a hill, on which the river dominates the tera. is established in a primitive Celtic village. and if you visit this place do not stop visiting the moeo of jigantillas and scalp I have been glued two photos that do not know how to remove them)
