Historical milestone · Santa Pola, El Baix Vinalopó, Alicante

Image of Santa Pola, not of the place itself.

The port of Santa Pola is documented in 1275 under the name Cap de l'Aljub, after the cistern that supplied seafarers. In 1337 a watchtower was raised there, and in 1379 a warden is already recorded in charge of its garrison.
