Castelló de la Plana

Castelló de la Plana Essentials

Castelló de la Plana centers on the historic Plaza Mayor, where the Gothic Co-cathedral of Saint Mary stands alongside El Fadrí, a distinctive 16th-century octagonal bell tower. The city's architectural landscape includes the 18th-century Baroque Town Hall and the neoclassical Teatre Principal. Cultural highlights range from the traditional Mercat Central, housing over 60 food stalls since 1949, to contemporary spaces like the Espai d’Art Contemporani. Monuments throughout the center, such as the statue of King James I, reflect the city’s medieval foundations and Mediterranean history.
