The Castle of Burgos was a castle and alcázar, located in the city of Burgos, in the hill of San Miguel to 75 m above the city and to 981 meters above the sea. This hill was the subject of archaeological surveys by General Centeno in the years 1925 and 1926 trying to find Napoleonic military files when the French in their retreat blew up the fortress. According to this general the origin of the castle attributes to the Visigoths, and its oldest parts, to the Romans.

As was increasing importance of the defensive emplacement, it gave way to a castle and more complex defensive elements.
