Guardianes de Piedra travels to Callosa de Segura

 

The exhibition "Guardians of Stone. Los Castillos de Alicante" continues its tour of the province and will arrive on 24 January in Callosa de Segura. The exhibition, which recreates the wealth of Alicante's defensive heritage,IWC Replica Watches will remain in the Municipal Archaeological Museum "Antonio Ballester Ruiz" of this town until the 10th of June.

Those who come to Callosa de Segura will discover that Alicante is a Land of Castles. More than 230 fortifications, castles, coastal towers, towers of refuge, fortified houses, forts and batteries populate the province and constitute an essential part of the cultural heritage of our cities, towns and villages, guarding our history within their solid walls. Alicante, due to its great strategic value, the mildness of its climate and its peculiar orography, has been a territory highly coveted by corsairs, pirates and other peoples who wanted to settle here, which led its inhabitants to build defensive elements to protect their lands and their people. They were our Stone Guardians.

A unique exhibition that has already been visited by more than 30,000 people during its visits to the MARQ, Villena, Guardamar, Xixona, Orihuela, Crevillente, Calpe, La Vila and Cocentaina.
