Private tour in Santa Barbara Castle
The essential tour of Alicante! We promote a tourism that fuses entertainment, culture and respect for the city 😊
The Santa Barbara Castle is the jewel and reason of being of Alicante. Up until the XIX century, Alicante was a military city, an important gateway to the rest of Spain. Its strategic position has been crucial to its history and the reason why the city has been attacked so many times.
However, the city of Alicante was never considered conquered until the Castle of Santa Barbara was officially taken.
Therefore, the Castle has witnessed invasions, uprisings, betrayals, explosions and imprisonments during its more than a thousand years of history.
