There were 240 inhabitants in the village in 1940. This was largest known population in its history. Its municipality covers an area of 5.4km.\r\n\r\nThis mountain village is without doubt the most rural, singular and picturesque of the administrative region. It was formerly known as Castellonet de Santa Fe. It is also said that it was seaport, perhaps due to its being the first village between the sea and the interior. At entrance to the village, with its Roman arch, we find traces of the small fortress that used to stand on the site. The other entrance to the site can be found in the lower part of the village, next to the lavoir, known as \u201cLa Albacara\u201d, and which is of Arabic origin. The festivities held in honour of the village\u2019s patron saint, Saint James, are celebrated on 25th July and the nearest weekend to the date. Castellonet has a rich history of which little is known. In order to remedy this situation, a process has been launched to conduct an investigation into the village\u2019s origins, anecdotes, legends and customs with the aim of publishing a book on the municipality\u2019s past and present history, as well as the measures and work being implemented in favour of the conservation, development and structuring of the villages within La Cuenca de Vernisa.\r\nTOURIST INFORMATION TELEPHONE: 962887028 (Council)","galeria-poblacion":[70016,70020,70022,70023,70024,70025],"descripcion_2":"
