Algo que nos atrae es la vista panorámica que podemos apreciar de la Asunción y sus alrededores,es única ,como todos los castillos tiene un encanto, a mi parecer cada piedra ,cada detalle cuenta una historia.Uno puede recrear facilmente escenas de batallas,de Luisa Cáceres altiva defendiendo sus ideales ,podemos imaginar su sufrimiento al perder su hija por ser victima de tantas humillaciones y maltratos.
Something that attracts us is the panoramic view that we can appreciate of the Asunción and its surroundings, it is unique, like all castles it has a charm, in my opinion every stone, every detail tells a story, one can easily recreate scenes of battles, of Luisa Cáceres haughty defending her ideals, we can imagine her suffering when she lost her daughter for being a victim of so many humiliations and mistreatments.

Los Monumentos Históricos son un gran legado para las generaciones,este castillo ha resistido por siglos,es un espacio de respeto,cuando entras en el ,se siente una calma,pero en sus espacios ocurrieron hechos que dejaron huellas, abominables y repudiados ,pero así es la historia,llena de sucesos,leyendas,derrotas y triunfos que nos ayudan a entenderla y valorarla.
The Historical Monuments are a great legacy for the generations, this castle has resisted for centuries, it is a space of respect, when you enter it, you feel a calm, but in its spaces occurred events that left traces, abominable and repudiated, but that is history, full of events, legends, defeats and triumphs that help us to understand and value it.
