We’ve visited this castle a few times, not been for a while and so decided to go for the view. Paid our 3 euros to go in, such a paltry sum for a good few hours visit. Walked into the first part of the exhibit inside the fort/castle and it’s all changed. Wow I was amazed at the layouts and info they’ve put in, some effort here. Telling the story of how the castle came into being, defenders and attackers history and rebuilds of the defences. Great Spanish and English language story boards, covering Drake, Nelson, Rogers, and many more pirates who had attacked the place successfully and unsuccessfully. The roof still provides making views across the whole island, the towns along the roads and it’s all breath taking. Don’t miss out on this it’s well worth it.

This really is unmissable. The location and architecture is outstanding. The Church is beautiful both inside and out. Clean, simple decoration inside the Church. There are two small curved marble staircases either side of the altar. This is facing a huge organ at the back of the Church. It looks much bigger inside than from the outside.

A pirate museum, in a castle, on top of a volcano, amazing! But on a serious note, this place is very interesting and very much worth a visit. It sheds a lot of light on the history of the area. I think as a tourist it would be easy to look at Lanzarote solely as a sun and sea holiday island, but I walked away from here having learned a lot about the (often brutal) history of the island, and the local area, which made me look at it with renewed interest. It was very interesting to go and visit the local town of Teguise (which you get a great view of from the roof of the castle) after the museum, and to walk about knowing the history. Also, the panoramic view from the top of the castle is spectacular and you can see for miles. And a bargain at 3 euros. Ps there are toilets round the back of the castle, there's no signs suggesting they are, but they were!
