Ares del Maestrat

Ares del Maestrat is located on an imposing rocky mass, an enclave with exceptional views of the rough landscape of the region. On this mass, the ruins of the old Arab castle, in which there are some well-preserved remains of the walls, are situated

The museum of la Cova del Castell tells the visitors the most outstanding facts of the history of Ares del Maestrat. A story which begins in the prehistory, as is evidenced by the exceptional cave paintings in the Cova Remigia, designated World Heritage by UNESCO.
