Morella is an outstanding example of a Gothic city and has been declared a cultural heritage site.

Spanish Mediterranean Coast Tour ~ Castellón (Region) The first thing that catches your eye is the castle and the medieval city walls, which were built in the 14th century. The Old Town has notable churches such as the Gothic Church of Santa María Archpriest (1263-1330) with Baroque details; the Old Monastery of San Francisco (13th century); the Church of San Juan (15th century), Gothic with neoclassical decorations; and the Church of San Nicolás, also Gothic; as well as the monasteries of San Marcos and San Pedro Martir. In terms of civil architecture, it is worth mentioning the Casa de la Villa (14th and 17th centuries), the houses of Ciurana, Piquer, Rovira and Cardenall Ram, and the Old Hospital (15th century). Strolling through the stepped streets and arcades of Blasco de Aragon, looping the hill along the Alameda and admiring the medieval aqueduct of Santa Lucia are important ways to get to know the city. The city of Morella has two standout attractions: the cave paintings of Morella La Vella and the shrine of La Virgen de Vallivana. Every six years since 1673, the Virgin Mary is carried in procession through the city. There are many chapels along the road where pilgrims pray and offer prayers during the 22 km walk. #February2025 #SpainTravel #Valencia
