Onda, Medieval municipality in Plana Baixa, Spain

The municipality extends over 108 square kilometers of land at an elevation of 194 meters above sea level in eastern Spain's Castellón province.

The settlement's origins date back to Iberian times in the 6th century BC, later developing under Roman rule as Sepelaci with a bridge over Mijares River.

The Valencia Museum of Ceramics in Onda maintains collections documenting the region's extensive history of ceramic tile manufacturing and artistic traditions.

The town connects to major transportation networks through the CV-20 road, which provides direct access to Castellón de la Plana and Valencia's metropolitan area.

The castle complex features defensive structures from different periods, incorporating elements from Islamic fortifications and Christian military architecture.
