Castle of Santa Barbara

5.5
4.8/5
31 reviews
Castle of Santa Barbara was built in the 16th century, though the history of this area dates back even further. Items from the Bronze Age, Iberian period, and Roman period have all been discovered on the mountain. Today, this castle has become an iconic landmark of Alicante. There is an elevator on the side near the sea, but there is an extra charge to take the elevator up, while it is free to come down. There are many trails behind the castle that lead to the top, where you can overlook the entire city and the beautiful seaside scenery. After coming down, you can stroll along the beach. Interestingly, when you look at the castle from the beach entrance, you can see a structure that resembles a Moorish face.Alicante · 22.3km from Elche
