Monastery of Mare de Déu dels Àngels and Porta Ferrada
Highlight • Religious Site
In the 12th century, due to various battles carried out by the French army, the monastery suffered various damages that led to a restoration in 1317 in which the old Romanesque chevets of the church were replaced by new Gothic apses, and at the end of the 14th century it was finished. to rebuild the nave, also in the Gothic style.
At the end of the 17th century, the walled enclosure was destroyed by the French, which led to new reforms, such as the Baroque building of the monastery, leaving a complex that mixes Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque styles.
Of the little that remains of the walled enclosure, the Porta Ferrada, from the 9th-10th century, the Fum tower (10th-11th centuries) and the Corn tower (11th century) stand out. The name of both doors (smoke and horn) refer to the methods used to give notice of attacks by sea.
