This castle was built to protect the entrance to Pasaia's bay and port. It was begun in 1625 on a slightly elevated piece of ground where the Churrutella windmills used to be. A magnificent defence against sea attack, it proved useless against land offensives and consequently incorporated defensive structures around itself throughout the 18th century. It ceased to be used in 1867, but the remains can still be seen and appreciated.
