Corbera Castle
Description
Corbera Castle is an impressive Muslim fortress, whose foundations lay on Roman remains. It has an irregular base, following the shape of the hill on which it rests. It was constructed in the 11th century to control the foothills of Murta and the coast. It is still possible to see the wall, the buttresses of the parade enclosure and the albarrana tower, which dates back to the Almohad period and it is one of the best-preserved towers in Europe. The complex was almost totally destroyed in 1521, during the Revolt of the Brotherhoods.
