Ortona’s Main symbol is the majestic Castello Aragonese. After being used as a defensive structure for centuries by the Aragonese family, the Castello Aragonese became at first a noble residence and was then abandoned in the XIX Century.
1943’s bombing episodes severely damaged the structure and led to many restoration operations which allow us to see the castle the way it is today.
The castle is trapezoidal in shape with 3 cylindrical towers and thanks to its position, right above the water, enjoys a breathtaking view of the adriatic sea.
