Salto de Castro, or Poblado del Salto de Castro, is an abandoned village in the municipality of Fonfría, Zamora, Spain. It is located near the Castro Dam, in the lowest part of the Arribes of Douro. After seeing it's last family move out in 1989 and being abandoned ever since, it was finally purchased in 2026 by businessman/musician Jason Lee Beckwith from the United States.[1][2] [3]
