VILAFAMÉS REIGNS REGAL IN RED

Located in the Province of Castellón, Villafamés occupies a strategic position on top of a hill that is part of the northern end of the mountain range - Sierra de les Conteses.

The earliest evidence of occupation of Vilafamés are based on archaeological finds from the Middle Pleistocene period - called "Homo erectus vilafamensis" some 80,000 years ago.

The Castle that tops the village has Arab foundations but once conquered by King Jaime 1 in 1233 it has undergone various reforms throughout its history.
