Castell d'Ulldecona, Medieval castle in Serra Grossa mountains, Catalonia, Spain

The fortress includes two towers, a church, and a perimeter wall situated on a hill at 256 meters above sea level near the Sénia River.

The castle served as an Andalusian fortification from the 8th to 11th centuries before becoming property of the Montcada family following the Christian conquest in 1148.

The castle received official recognition as a Bien de Interés Cultural, marking its status in the Archaeological and Paleontological Heritage of Catalonia inventory.

Visitors can access guided tours of the castle complex to examine the circular watchtower, square keep tower, and remnants of medieval structures.

The fortress contains preserved sections of the original Arabic fortification, including wall segments topped with two observation towers.
