Construction of important walls of 6 m high for more than 60 years of work

The construction of these imposing walls was ordered by King James II at the end of the 13th century, in order to protect Alcúdia from the raids of the Turkish pirates who were then rampant throughout the Mediterranean. The erection of these 6-metre high walls took the royal workers and architects more than 60 years. They were redesigned in the 16th and 17th centuries under the reign of King Felipe IV. The Sant Ferran stronghold dates from this period and can still be seen today in the Plaza de Toros.

Notre choix : aller à Alcudia un jour de marché, le mardi. On découvre ainsi les rues, remparts et portes de la ville dans une ambiance très animée. Le tour du chemin de ronde en partie restauré offre une vue super sur la ville. Et quand le marché se termine, on se croit ailleurs ! parking facile et gratuit à raz des remparts.
