The resistance of the castle of Pambre against the Irmandiños

Historical milestone · Palas de Rei, Ulloa, Lugo

Image of Palas de Rei, not of the place itself.

When the Great Irmandiña War pulled down dozens of Galician fortresses in 1467, Pambre withstood the siege and escaped dismantling. That is why it is today the only castle in the province of Lugo that keeps its 14th-century fabric intact.
