Durante años fue escenario de las luchas, primero entre Pedro I y Enrique de Trastamara y después entre la nobleza y el arzobispo de Santiago, Don Alonso de Fonseca y Acevedo.

Manuel Taboada Fernández, conde de Borraxeiros, que como última voluntad testamentaria cedió el castillo a los Hermanos Misioneros de los Enfermos Pobres, orden religiosa con sede en el barrio vigués de Teis.
