Zuloaga rescues the castle

Curiosity · Pedraza, Comunidad de Villa y Tierra de Pedraza, Segovia

Image of Pedraza, not of the place itself.

The painter Ignacio Zuloaga bought the castle in 1926 and restored it in order to install his studio there; his determination saved the fortress from ruin and tied the name of the Basque artist for ever to that of this Segovian town.
