In case no one has pointed this out already, in the following example:

Can a king moved to square that is attacked by a pinned piece?

On the chessboard, there is the following situation. One player, say
white, has a knight, that is `pinned' by a bishop of the opponent, i.e.,
the knight is between the black bishop and the white king, so if the
knight would move, then the king is checked. Is in this situation black
allowed to move to a square attacked by the knight?

The piece on A6 is a rook (or castle) vice bishop as stated. Other than
that, I found this site quite informative and helpful.
