Over the course of centuries, the Region of Valencia was inhabited by a great number of civilisations. Each community had their very own set of cultures, traditions and customs, imprints of which they left behind. The Region of Valencia therefore boasts a vast and diverse cultural heritage that speaks of a fascinating past.
From north to south, you will come across culture in many forms, whether that be in museums, galleries and archaeological sites or castles and fortresses. Another way to get to know what the area is really about is through the festivals held here, celebrations you won’t find anywhere else in the world.
Cultural activities in the province of Castellón
Located in the north of the Region, the province of Castellón is home to some great historic treasures, such as the
cave art at Valltorta gorge and its connected museum, which is the only museum dedicated to Levantine Art. Museo de Historia Militar de Castellón will immerse you in military history while Museo de Bellas Artes exhibits pieces by some great artists. La Magdalena festival in Castelló de la Plana is a fanfare of traditions, dances and local costumes and Papa Luna castle, in Peñíscola, will transport you back to a time of great legends.
