In the Castle of Castro there lived a powerful count that had three beautiful daughters of marrying age. Another count, also rich and noble, sent an embassy to ask for the hand of one of the daughters. The count of Castro received the emissaries and when they explained the plan, because he had three daughters, he asked: Cal delas? (which one?). And this is the reason why people began to call that land Caldelas.
