Castillo de Santa Bárbara
There are sweeping views over the city from this large 16th-century castle, which houses the Museo de la Ciudad de Alicante, a new museum recounting the history of the city. It’s a sweaty walk up the hill to the castle, but there’s a lift, reached by a footbridge opposite Playa del Postiguet, that rises through the bowels of the mountain to the summit. To return, it’s a pleasant, and much less sweaty, walk through Parque de la Ereta via Calle San Rafael to Plaza del Carmen.
