Castillo de Guzmán el Bueno was restored in the first half of the 17th century, when it still maintained its defensive activity as a bastion against the Barbary piracy that devastated these coasts during the 16th and 17th centuries.

Tarifa's most famous sight: massive castle with high walls, from which you have a great view of Morocco. You should plan around an hour for the visit. In the summer months (May to October) the Castillo is open daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. All information can be found at andalucia.org/de/kultureller-tourismus/besichtigungen/cadiz/denkmaler/castillo-de-guzman-el-bueno.

Old castle with great views over Tarifa. On beautiful days you can look from the roof to Africa. Inside is a small but very nice museum
