Free visit to the Old Town.
Stroll its cobbled streets and wander among arcades and castles
Standing at an altitude of 800 to 900 meters above sea level, Benassal is located in the north-western area of the province of Castellon and is part of the Alt Maestrat region. It is nestled in a middle mountain area where the Iberian and the Catalan mountain ranges meet. Benassal borders with the towns of Vistabella, Villafranca, Ares del Maestrat, Villar de Canes, and Culla.
During a visit to the historic center, the Mola Castle from the 13th century stands out, as well as the arches and towers of the wall that used to delimit the town’s oldest core site. Some of the top highlights are the Gothic-style Mola portal, built between the years 1240-1250 during the Templar occupation, which is the original part of the Virgen de la Asunción Church. Lastly, don’t forget to visit the Font de Dalt, a medieval furnace located near Callo de la Mola.
