Castillo de Santa Bárbara - Museo de la Ciudad de Alicante and its collection

Castillo de Santa Bárbara - Museo de la Ciudad de Alicante
Source

Castillo de Santa Bárbara (The castle of Santa Bárbara) is a castle in Alicante, on Mount Benacantil, a rocky mass with a height of 167 meters that borders the sea and from which you can see the entire bay of Alicante and its terrestrial surroundings, giving it a big strategic advantage. The Museo de la Ciudad de Alicante (MUSA) includes archaeological ruins, a room where the link between the city and the sea (Mare Nostrum) is shown through archaeological and ethnological materials, a room that accommodates coats of arms, tombstones, heraldry, photographs and the fortress’ old medieval gate, and a room on the explosion of the mine.
