A<\/span>nd we’re back! Villafranca del Bierzo has a castle! It’s not nearly as impressive as the one in Ponferrada<\/a>, but then Villafranca is a small town, whereas Ponferrada is a city. This particular castle<\/a> was inhabited by the Counts of Pe\u00f1a Ramiro, who at some point were also Marquises of Villafranca. The current construction dates to 1515 and stands atop a much older castle. During the Peninsular Wars it was looted and burned by the English in 1809 and then twice by the French, in 1815 and again in 1819. It is particularly notable to me as being the view from the caf\u00e9 tables of an excellent little bar across the street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
