With a very interesting historical heritage, Castellón is perfect for exploring on foot. Discover its history and let yourself be surprised by its historic centre. The Town Hall, the Fadrí or the Co-Cathedral are unmissable examples of Mediterranean Gothic architecture, whose splendour was developed during the fourteenth century and first half of the fifteenth century.
Between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the modernist style arrived in Castellón. Wealthy families commissioned different buildings to cover their needs, and they have almost all remained in their original state to this day.
