Marcilla Castle

The Castillo Palacio de Marcilla is a Gothic-style castle built in the 15th century by Mosén Pierres de Peralta. At first it had a defensive character but when the Marquisate of Falces was instituted it became the residential palace of the Marquises. The gateway to the castle, which houses the drawbridge under which the moat runs, is next to what is considered to be the Homage Tower, one of the four towers that make up the corners of the castle. Inside the fortress there was a large parade ground around which the rooms and rooms were distributed. The palace chapel preserves its 16th century paintings.

Acquired by the Government of Navarra in 1976 and thoroughly restored in the 2008-2012 period, it currently houses the town hall and other municipal bodies.
