The Aragonese Castle is the emblem of Ischia and stands on an islet to the east of the island, connected to the historic village of Ischia Ponte by a 220-meter-long stone bridge. Access to the castle is via a tunnel carved into the rock and lit by skylights, which connects to a mule track leading to the top of the islet. From here, additional narrow paths with various routes lead to the different buildings and gardens that are part of the castle. During your visit, you will be able to see the Church of the Immaculate Conception, the Poor Clares' convent and cemetery, the Cathedral of the Assumption with its crypt, the Church of San Pietro a Pantaniello, the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, the political prisons, the panoramic terrace with olive trees, and the vegetable gardens and vineyards. All while enjoying breathtaking views from 113 metres above sea level.
