According to classical tradition, the Temple of Moloch / Kronos was located on this island .
In 1457 a hermitage was built on the island by the crew of a Venetian ship recovering from the plague. They named it San Sebastián.
In 1706 the construction of a castle was started. Based on the Islamic watchtower, the current lighthouse was built in 1908, the second electric lighthouse in Spain, 41 meters above sea level. In 1860, a promenade was built that serves as a connection between the island and the urban area of the city.
The original silhouette of this castle over the sea has made it the setting for several films. Hollywood used it as the setting for action scenes of the Agent James Bond film Die Another Day, starring Pierce Brosnan and Halle Berry.
Currently, the Castillo de San Sebastián is used as an exhibition space in the internal casemates and as a venue for concerts and other outdoor recreational events.
