Stop At: Bateria de Castillitos, Cabo Tinoso, 30868 Cartagena, Municipality of Cartagena Spain
Sometimes the custody of the military heritage is a constant source of debate, so that often its conservation is relegated to the background causing its deterioration; examples such as the battery of Monte San Pedro in La Coruña show that a correct restoration of a military installation, through its integration and contextualization, can constitute a pole of tourist attraction and regeneration of spaces for the enjoyment of tourists and locals.
The coast of Cartagena is recurrent in military installations, given the strategic importance of its Arsenal, but whose state of conservation is not the most adequate in most cases, yet there are complexes of great eye-catching as is the case of the coastal battery of Castillitos.
Duration: 1 hour
