Tips

The Castell de Sant Joan is a fortification in the municipality of Lloret de Mar, declared a cultural asset of national interest.

The fortification is located on the cliff of a small elevation popularly known as Cerro Castell, about 60 meters above sea level, which separates Lloret beach from Fenals beach. From its position you can perfectly see both the area near the center of Lloret and the castle of San Juan de Blanes, which is part of the same line of fortifications (hence they share the same name).

The castle is accessible both by car and on foot, with a path that starts from one of the main promenades of the town and runs along the sea side, until reaching the promontory on which it is located from the east.

In the center of the castle is the great master tower, a circular building about 18 meters high. The perimeter is surrounded by a wall about five meters high, which defines the original triangular shape of the fortification.

Originally it was a relatively simple defensive construction, basically a triangular walled enclosure of about 500 m² in area, protected by a moat about three meters deep, with the tower as the central building intended to serve as a watchtower.

All in all it's nice but seeing it open is about as likely as the German authorities. View on the way but very nice
