Castell de Mequinensa

The stone walls of Castillo de Mequinenza stand at the meeting point of three rivers: Ebro, Segre, and Cinca, creating a natural defense position.

Built during the 14th century, this fortress maintained control over water routes and served as a strategic military outpost through multiple conflicts.

The castle represents Gothic military architecture with its stone walls, defensive towers, and architectural elements that showcase medieval building techniques.

Visitors can reach the castle by following signs from Mequinenza town center, with parking available at the base of the hill.

The castle's position at 185 meters above sea level allows observers to see three different rivers converging at a single point.
