Santa Barbara Castle<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Santa Barbara Castle<\/strong> <\/a>is, without a doubt, one of the great symbols of Alicante and one of the most essential visits of the city. It rises imposingly over the Benacantil mountain<\/strong>at more than 160 meters above sea level, offering spectacular views of the Mediterranean, the harbor and the city center.<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Its origin dates back to Muslim times, although much of the current fortress was developed between the fourteenth and eighteenth centuries. Throughout its history, the castle has been the scene of battles, sieges and key events that have marked the future of Alicante. Walking along its walls is a real journey through time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
