The fortress of San Fernando is located at less than one kilometre from the more famous Santa Barbara Castle. It was built during the war of independence against the French in 1813 on top of the Tossal hill. The name San Fernando is a tribute to Fernando VII of Spain, a Spanish king from the beginning of the 19th century. The castle wasn't a very high-quality structure, which means that it is not in very good condition.
You enjoy beautiful views of the city and above all a very nice view of the Santa Barbara castle.
The first written record of church in Danmark locality date back to the year 1291. Close to the church are several stones with a Christian text and cross inscribed. The oldest parts of the present red-brick church are from the 1300s. In the late 1400s the church was enlarged to the appearance it has today. The church has been modified both internally and externally several times, among other things after the fires in 1699 and 1889. There are lot of well-preserved mural paintings in the walls.
