The Castell de Requesens is a remote but beautiful semi-preserved castle, situated in the hills of the Albera Mountains that separate Spain from France, just east of La Jonquera 6 km from Cantalops.

Requesens Castle is located on a hill, overlooking all the southern valleys of Mount Neulós, about 7 km east of the Requesens neighborhood. For centuries, it has controlled the passage to Spain. Its term corresponds to that of the old town of Requesens, a population entity of La Junquera
