The castle of Santa Bárbara is a castle located in the center of the Spanish city of Alicante, on Mount Benacantil, a rocky mass of 167 m of altitude bordering the sea, which It conferred an enormous strategic value since from it you can see the entire bay of Alicante and its terrestrial surroundings. The image of the mountain from the beach resembles a face, which is why it is called "the face of the Moor" and is an icon of the city of Alicante.
The castle remained abandoned until 1963, when it was opened to the public. Lifts have been installed inside the mountain (€2.70 charge in October 2018 but free for adults aged 65 on production of ID). There are some guided tours at €3 per person and there are refreshments and other amenities at and near the summit.
