Your visit to Onda in the province of Castellón will open the door to adventure and history. The skyline of this part of La Plana Baixa has been dominated by an impressive castle for centuries. In the surrounding area there is a beautiful reservoir where you can enjoy all sorts of outdoor activities and sports tourism. Set aside a few days to come and explore: there’s plenty to see and experience.

What to do in Onda

Onda Castle is the first stop on our explorations. Did you know that it is called the Castle of 300 towers? Dating back to the 10th century, it is a magnificent fortress dating back to the Muslim period that is still in excellent condition. The castle houses the Museum of Archaeology and History of Onda.

Continue by walking through the lovely historic centre. You will be surprised by the beautiful ceramic panels that you will find along the way. Make sure you take a photo at Sant Pere Gate, one of the few ruins still standing of what used to be Onda town walls.

Next up on your list of things to see in Onda are La Asunción de Nuestra Señora Parish Church, a number of small yet beautiful chapels and the exhibitions at Onda’s Manolo Safont Ceramic Tile Museum. The ceramic industry is key to the history of Onda and has left behind great industrial heritage sites in the form of old chimneys and listed factories.

But that’s not all there is to see in Onda. Other sites of interest include Casona del Molí de la Reixa and El Salvador Chapel. 

Last but by no means least, you can soak up the beautiful scenery of Sichar Reservoir as you enjoy all sorts of adventure activities. Hiking and cycling trails, canyons, picnic areas, spectacular viewing points and the opportunity to paddle through the waters on your paddle board or kayak await. So what are you waiting for? Come to Onda and enjoy an unforgettable stay.
