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.

Herceg Novi Old Town

Herceg Novi was founded (on a former small fishing village, existing since Roman Empire times) as a fortress in 1382 by first Bosnian King Stjepan Tvrtko I and was called Sveti Stefan or Castelnuovo. The Turks conquered Herceg Novi in 1482, and ruled for 200 years, until 1687. However, there was a short pause between 1538 and 1539 when it was held by the Spaniards before they were defeated in the Siege of Castelnuovo. Turkey ruled again until 1687, from then until 1797, the town was ruled by the Venetian Republic.

The Herceg Novi old town is amazing. It is on a fairly steep hill that leads all the way down to the sea. Wandering through the small stairways to the various plazas and fortresses is a many hour adventure.
