Castillazuelo
Village
Castillazuelo, in the comarca of Somontano de Barbastro, lies on flat ground beside the río Vero, with streets laid out in a cross from a large central square; a medieval bridge links the town centre with the Ro Barrio quarter. It grew up under the protection of a medieval fortress of the 13th and 14th centuries, and was already crown land by 1126; in the 16th century the village took on its present layout. Today it lives off agriculture and livestock farming, and the cultivation of vines protected by the Somontano denomination of origin: its San Carbás white wine, from Bodegas Estada, has scored 90 points in the Guía Peñín. Next to the old bridge, the río Vero interpretation centre explains life along its banks, including mills and fulling mills, and from there a trail follows the riverbed past a 16th-century aqueduct.
