Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The castle is not set up as historical castle with information about its history. Instead it is currently a photography exhibit. We were not happy to pay 20 euro just for the photography exhibit. We expected to see more and learn more about the castle itself.

We were walking along the seaside on the beach and saw some brave swimmers in November. Then we arrived at this 16th century castle and the Santa Maria Bastion. They are nicely preserved. It had an important and dominating role in the past. It protected the harbor entrance to the city. The view is magnificent, we took lots of pics.

It is highly recommended to take a leisurely walk by the sea and enjoy the view of the historic 16th century Castle of Charles V and adjoining Santa Maria bastion. It is very peaseful and serene (tourists apart). The Castle is overlooking the Old Port of Monopoli and the views are beautiful.

Unfortunately every access I ve had to it was only promoting or showing art paintings or exhibiting banners about expositions in other buildings. There are no Castel objects or things related to it, only a pair of cannons. From the outside the View is ok but that is it. Not much

It's understandable that because of COVID the castel were closed, but the city could take better care of the outside. It's dirth and has signs of deterioration.

There is exhibition of Joan Miro in the Castle, 6 euro per person, but opened only rooms on first floor, the top of the Castle is closed 😥, we can't see beautiful view on harbour, and ground floor also closed ☹️

Amazing old historic Castle with views over the water and town. Easy walk in, up and around and it's free.

For so many years this Castle has been there, fighting against weather conditions, climate changes and so many coming to have a look to this piece of history in Monopoli.

Loved the whole waterfront area in Monopoli. You can walk the promenade by the castle and along the water to see the fortified walls and cannons.

We entered out of curiosity, while meandering around in the old town. The Castle is next to the city walls door beside the fishing port and you need to be fully mobile to visit it as there are several steps at the entrance as well as between floors. It is worthy a visit, as it is in great conditions, with several vaulted rooms, an inner court and a visitable roof top from which you command a great view of the sea, the city and the port. Entry was free of charge too.
