Hiking

The path is not difficult to walk, the upper section is even paved. The last few meters into the castle courtyard are for climbing.

History of the Castello di QuirraThe castle was then handed over to the House of Aragon after the Spanish and Catalan invasion in 1324. In 1363 the Catalan Berenguer Carròs i Llòria became Count of Quirra and thus the owner of the castle. And then over a century or two a series of legends began to be told.

They have made the castle famous even some legends, more or less well known, certainly endowed with a mysterious and melancholic charm. The first tells about Berengario Carroz who, although married, fell in love with Donna Eleonora Manriquez. This was the cousin of the Queen of Aragon and to marry her, he wants the legend, had his wife killed, falsely accusing her of treason.
