Going up to the castle is a worthwhile walk. Not only because of the views from the castle, but from the top of the mountain you can see impressive views of the meanders of the river to the town of Mequinensa.

It looked great from far below. Unfortunately, when we got to the top, we discovered that the gate was locked. We should have gotten a permit from the town hall. Nevertheless, we enjoyed a little bit of the surrounding area with fantastic views

There is no doubt that Iberians and Romans inhabited these lands and must have occupied and fortified this strategic location. In the 8th century, the site was an Arab defensive tower, built by the Berber tribe of the Miknasa, who gave the city its name. The current toponym Mequinenza is probably evident from the name. Since then, the strategically located fortress has been the center of many battles and conquests. It is now owned by a foundation and can only be visited by appointment
