Todolella Castle

Todolella, Spain

Todolella Castle was built in the 14th century and later rebuilt as a residence in the 16th century. It comprises four structures, sitting around a central patio, where there are different types of rooms.

The mason-built walls of Todolella Castle are topped with merlons, thanks to a recent restoration project. The castle is currently a private property and inhabited, but you can come for a visit when you book in advance.

Although it is a private property, we were able to go almost to the garden because it is not fenced and access can be done by car. They don't like to be bothered; There is a sign on the door stating that you cannot visit and that they should not ring the doorbell.

It is a home and cannot be visited. But the town anchored in the Middle Ages, all in stone. Within the town you can access the castle. But there was no restaurant or bar open, there were no services. It wasn't bad...

Mandatory visit when visiting the Ports region, specifically the beautiful town of La Todolella.

The castle cannot be visited because it is private property. After following the directions to get to the castle along a path that if I do not go with my 4x4, I find a sign stating that it is private property. I recommend NOT GOING to the castle because you will find that it is closed and on the outside there is nothing to see, what a disappointment.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
