Castelló de la Plana

Tucked along the coastal plain between the Mediterranean Sea and the Desert de les Palmes mountains, Castelló de la Plana is a city whose character is shaped by its long relationship with irrigated farmland and the nearby coast. The historic centre is marked by the freestanding Fadrí bell tower beside the Co-Cathedral of Santa María, a focal point of Plaça Major. Castelló’s annual Festes de la Magdalena recalls the medieval transfer of the settlement from La Magdalena hill to the plain through processions, music and civic ritual. The port district of Grau de Castelló connects the city directly with the Mediterranean, while citrus cultivation has long defined its surroundings.
