DECLARED A HISTORIC SITE

Nestled on the shores of the lake by which it has grown for more than 30,000 years, Bornos has been declared a Historic Site. The transition from Iberian to Roman culture can be seen in the remains of the Carissa Aurelia site, just a few kilometres from the town centre.
The most important buildings of its civil architecture, in addition to its castle, include the stately homes of La Cilla (7th-18th century) and of the Ordóñez family (18th century) and the Colegio y Hospital de la Sangre (College and Hospital of La Sangre). It also has a magnificent religious display, with the parish church of Santo Domingo de Guzmán, the convent of Corpus Christi and the monastery of Los Jerónimos, both from the 16th century. The mountain ranges near Bornos are ideal for hiking, horse riding and mountain biking.

And in the Bornos reservoir, as well as fishing and water sports, visitors can observe aquatic birds. Nearby is the hamlet of Coto de Bornos.

CASTLE-PALACE OF THE RIBERA FAMILY

The town's urban layout revolves around its monumental jewel, the castle-palace of the Ribera family, a BIC which can be visited. A beautiful palace with a Renaissance garden, declared a Historic Garden of Cultural Interest, was later erected over the Arab construction, of which remains of the wall and the keep have been preserved.
