Covarrubias Attractions

 
Leave Burgos on N I and turn left into the Soria road (N 234), which runs southeast by way of Cuevas de San Clemente to Hortigüela, where a road branches off on the right to Covarrubias (40km/25mi from Burgos). This was the capital of a principality which under Fernán González rose to become the kingdom of Castile and played the decisive role in the Reconquista. There are remains of the town's old fortifications, notably the massive Torreón de Doña Urraca (10th C.).
