, 6 sec f/11.0, ISO 100, tripod. Isola di Ischia, Italy.

Il Castello Aragonese è una fortificazione che sorge su un'isola tidale di roccia trachitica posto sul versante orientale dell'isola d'Ischia, collegato per mezzo di un ponte in muratura lungo 220 m all'antico Borgo di Celsa, conosciuto come Ischia Ponte. L'isolotto su cui è stato edificato il castello deriva da un'eruzione sinattica avvenuta oltre 300 000 anni fa. Raggiunge un'altezza di 113 metri sul livello del mare e ricopre una superficie di circa 56000 m². Geologicamente è una bolla di magma che si è andata consolidando nel corso di fenomeni eruttivi e viene definita "cupola di ristagno". Al castello si accede attraverso un traforo, scavato nella roccia e voluto verso la metà del Quattrocento da Alfonso V d'Aragona. Prima di allora l'accesso era possibile solo via mare attraverso una scala situata sul lato nord dell'isolotto. Il traforo è lungo 400 metri e il percorso è illuminato da alti lucernari che al tempo fungevano anche da "piombatoi" attraverso i quali si lasciava cadere olio bollente, pietre e altri materiali sugli eventuali nemici. Il tratto successivo è una mulattiera che si snoda in salita all'aperto e conduce fino alla sommità dell'isola. Da questa strada si diramano sentieri minori che portano ai vari edifici e giardini. Dagli anni settanta del Novecento è anche in funzione un ascensore, il cui percorso è ricavato nella roccia e che raggiunge i 60 metri sul livello del mare.
