The castle precinct off Plaza Mayor mostly dates from the 16th and 17th centuries; there are good views from the walls. The two surviving towers house moderately interesting museums: the Eco Museo on Pyrenean birds of prey and other fauna, and the Espacio del Geoparque de Sobrarbe on the region's intriguing geology.
