Alicante Essentials

Explore Alicante's historical landmarks, from the 9th-century Castle of Santa Bárbara on Mount Benacantil to the Gothic Basilica of Santa María, built over a former mosque. The city's architectural heritage includes the 18th-century Baroque Town Hall and the early 20th-century Central Market. Walk the mosaic-tiled Explanada de España or visit the Archaeological Museum (MARQ) for insights into local history. Modern culture is represented by the Museum of Contemporary Art (MACA), while the city's oldest park and central squares showcase its 19th and 20th-century urban evolution.
