Cervera del Maestre

Cervera del Maestre sits at 313 meters elevation atop a hill offering panoramic views over the surrounding countryside of Castellón province in the Valencian Community.

Founded around 331 BCE, the town preserves ruins of a 13th-century Moorish castle that once served as a strategic defensive position overlooking the territories below.

Local residents known as cerverí and cerverina celebrate the Fiesta de la Virgen de la Estrella in September featuring traditional music, dance performances, and regional gastronomy.

The municipality is accessible via regional roads from Valencia 123 kilometers away, offering local accommodations and proximity to Sierra Irta and Montañas de Vallibana natural parks.

With only 593 inhabitants as of 2022, this small town maintains a ruined ermita south of the settlement that reflects historical religious community activities.
