Castle built in 1067 to protect the town from marauding hordes. Used for the filming of the black and white version of Ivanhoe in the 1920's - one end of the Castle represented one castle, and the other, squarer end represented another.

Lovely location. They do tapas and the most amazing skewers. Paella can be had, but notice must be given. You have to book as it is very popular, especially on a nice evening or a sunny lunchtime.
