The two fourteenth-century octagonal towers of the north entrance, with a terrace and a stretch of the wall-walk · 30 min · €3.

What it is
They are the two twin towers, with octagonal bases, that flank the Sant Miquel gate, the north entrance to the town and the main one today. They were built in the fourteenth century and are the showiest part of the wall that encircles Morella: about two kilometres of curtain wall with seven gates and ten towers. From outside you see them as you arrive from the car park; inside they are a small museum and a viewpoint.
What you see inside
You can visit both towers inside. You climb a narrow wooden staircase, cross the bridge that joins them and come out on the terrace, with views over the square, the rooftops and the wall. From there you walk a stretch of the wall-walk as far as the Nevera gate, from where you can see how the town was defended from the top of the wall.
In the rooms there are pieces of carved stone, old photographs of Morella and a collection of miniature vintage cars that children usually like. The most useful thing for a first-time visitor is the scale model of the walled enclosure, with information on all its towers and gates: in a few minutes it gets you oriented before you lose yourself in the streets. Allow about 30 minutes.
Hours and tickets
Tuesday to Sunday, from 10:00 to 14:00. On Saturdays, according to the tourist listing, from 10:00 to 13:00 and 16:00 to 18:00. Closed on Mondays, on 25 and 26 December and on 1, 6 and 7 January. Admission costs €3 and is paid in cash only, at the ticket desk; accompanied children under 6 do not pay. The listing does not give reduced or group rates; for those, contact the tourist office on 964 17 30 32 or by WhatsApp on 661 42 52 94.
It is not an accessible monument: the staircase is narrow and there is no lift. You can leave a pushchair at reception. Pets are not admitted.
What is around
Plaza de Sant Miquel is the starting point for almost everything. The Dinosaur Museum is there, and the Pasos de Dino route leaves from the towers, crossing the Gothic aqueduct and following the Camí de Xiva to the sauropod footprints at Mas de Romeu. In front of the tourist office the guided tour of Morella leaves at weekends, and the arcaded street begins from the gate. To sleep a step away, the Hotel Rey Don Jaime is beside the gate.
