In 2019, the Governing Council of the Junta of Castile and León declared the Castillo de los Dávila and the medieval fortified bridge over the River Tormes a Site of Cultural Interest, under the designation of Historic Ensemble (Conjunto Histórico). This recognition was due to their strategic role as a key crossing point for livestock along the Cañada Real Soriana Occidental during the transhumance route to Extremadura.

In 2024 the municipality had a population of 225 inhabitants.
