Peñíscola is one of the most beautiful municipalities in the province of Castellón, located in the north of the Valencian Community and one of the most touristic towns.
At the top of a hill is Peñíscola Castle, which was the residence of Pope Luna, who was one of the most controversial fathers of the Catholic Church. This castle was built by the Knights Templar of a powerful Catholic military order. It became the holy see during the papacy of Luna, although between the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, which were very turbulent times for the church because there were up to three popes simultaneously.
This municipality has many shops located in the old town next to the castle and within its narrow stone streets.
Its five long stretches of fine sand make it an important beach in Peñíscola and one of the best, highlighting its facilities for people with reduced mobility.
