94 reviews of Peñíscola Castle

Tied to one of the most interesting persons in Spain's history

This castle is tied to the history of one of the most interesting persons in Spain's history: el Papa Luna (Pope Benedicto XIII), who was responsible for the construction of his papal headquarters. The castle, built by templar knights, is very well conserved and maintains its charm.

From the top of the walls you can enjoy a spectacular view of the Peniscola Bay, which is a must-see for anyone that passes by this area.

A Great Castle

Excellent

Castle of Papaluna: a beautiful castle with great views of the sea. It is very big, with a great number of rooms, halls and shields. I didn’t think it was expensive.
You can also admire it from the sea, since they do boat trips, bordering the sea. From the top of the castle you can see all of Peñíscola.
Inside the region of Catellón, it is one the must see monuments, since it is perfectly preserved.

A Must Visit

Great

It is very well preserved. From afar you can see the missiles that were thrown towards the fort. It is not too expensive, 3.50€.

It is not too big, actually, but it is very well preserved so you can get an idea of how they lived and spent their days in the castle. The best part is the view from the top.

It is a must visit if you are in Peñíscola, or a good excuse to visit the town.
