Citadel and Vuelta del Castillo · optional extension

The Citadel shows how a fortification can become a meeting place. The enclosure and Vuelta del Castillo combine military architecture, green space and cultural uses. Observe the angles and relationship between walls and ground before looking for an entrance: these forms follow defensive logic rather than purely monumental design. Four historic buildings host art exhibitions; check their programme before visiting. Walking around the grounds does not mean every room is accessible. Choose a circuit suited to the time available rather than turning the visit into a race. Finish a quieter day between heritage and parkland while respecting closures and clearly marked access arrangements.
