Architecture old town Altea

The Old Town of Altea

The charming old town of Altea is the heart of the coastal town and undoubtedly one of the most important places to visit in the region. A stroll through the beautiful narrow streets to the charming church square, the ‘Plaza de la Iglesia’ Church Square ‘is almost a must on every trip. Unique here is the landscape with the numerous white village houses which are characteristic for Altea. On a stroll through the narrow cobbled streets, you will discover something beautiful around every corner. You can do some shopping in one of the many craft shops, numerous excellent restaurants, and always incredible viewpoints from which you can enjoy breathtaking coastal views.

Our Lady of Consolation

One of the most beautiful attractions of Altea is the church ‘Nuestra Señora del Consuelo’. Ook bekend als ‘Iglesia de Arriba’. Hier zijn de prachtige koepels gemaakt van blauwe bakstenen, die het stadsbeeld van veraf bepalen. The church is also worth seeing from the inside and can be visited free of charge during opening hours. Delicious coffees and snacks are available in the small bars on the Plaza de la Iglesia, the town’s picturesque church square. The image, the colours and the town of Altea have a lot of charm. We are very happy to be able to work as architects in Altea.
