Construction of important walls of 6 m high for more than 60 years of work

The construction of these imposing walls was ordered by King James II at the end of the 13th century, in order to protect Alcúdia from the raids of the Turkish pirates who were then rampant throughout the Mediterranean. The erection of these 6-metre high walls took the royal workers and architects more than 60 years. They were redesigned in the 16th and 17th centuries under the reign of King Felipe IV. The Sant Ferran stronghold dates from this period and can still be seen today in the Plaza de Toros.

Très belle promenade
Un super circuit que celui des murailles. Quelques ruines sans grand intéret. A l'intérieur, une très mignonne petite ville surpeuplée en été mais à voir quand même. Belle église. Office du tourisme près du marché (très grand) et ruelles typiques très agréables. Ne pas louper le flamenco dans l'arène deux fois par semaine : géant. Grand parking mais vite plein !

Murailles très bien conservées: donnent son aspect typique à la ville.

Très beaux remparts historiques
Jolie ville avec son centre piéton entourée de ses murailles. On peut monter dessus pour profiter de la vue ! Attention, il n'y pas trop de protections (surtout avec des enfants). Beaucoup de touristes toutefois (mi Septembre)
