Castillo de Beselga, Beselga Castle, is a Medieval fortress that stands atop a hill in Estivella, and whose striking outline has become an icon for this town in El Camp de Morvedre. Located on the northern slopes of Garbí in Sierra Calderona natural park, the scenery around here is truly outstanding.
Dating back to the 15th century, the castle in Estivella features a striking Almohad tower which can be traced back to the 12th century. The fortress itself was built around the tower, expanding over the years, and some of the original walls still stand today.
Beselga Castle is laid out nicely so that you can explore the grounds easily by using the stairs and railings that help you climb up to the tower. There are interesting information panels that will reveal the history of the place to you. And if you’re a hiking enthusiast, you can head off on a gentle walk from the castle up to Garbí Viewpoint.
