Angioino-Aragonese Castle
What makes it special
The castle has a long and fascinating history dating back to the 13th century, when it was built under the rule of the Angevin family. At that time, Gaeta was a strategic city for the control of the Mediterranean, and the castle was built precisely to defend this important commercial and military hub.
