The day after we arrived at Tortosa we went out expoloring. One of our stops was the Castell de la Suda (St John Castle) which includes the Parador Hotel we stayed in. It was badly damaged during the Spanish Civil War and since 1972 has been a “Parador Nacional", a state-run hotel, which has involved large-scale restoration work. Walls, arches, the magazine, a room with trefoil windows, the courtyard and underground galleries survive from the old fortifications.
