Iglesia Parroquial de San Bartolomé Apóstol, San Bartolomé Apóstol Parish Church in Borriol, is a must-visit during your time in this part of the province of Castellón. Built between the late 16th and early 17th centuries, the place of worship combines elements of the late Renaissance and Baroque styles. Take a stroll around and you will see different chapels, including the Communion chapel, and the simple façade, which is in the Renaissance style. Stone is the protagonist of both the interior and the exterior, appearing in the arches and columns as well as in the choir. The latter has an organ dating back to the year 1887, which was restored in 2005. The belltower has a square plan and three sections, which have number of curious engravings that tell its history.

Bursting with charm, San Bartolomé Apóstol Parish Church is just one of many reasons to visit Borriol. The town also has rock art which is over 10,000 years old and a fascinating museum, Borriol History Museum, also known as MUHBO.
