Sentmenat Castle

Highlight • Castle

Sentmenat Castle is a castle in the municipality of Sentmenat (Barcelona) declared a cultural asset of national interest.

The castle is in a strategic place. The façade, oriented to the west, is on the margin of the ravine that forms the Sentmenat stream. Built on a flat ridge of the ridge, 1,300 m northwest of the parish church of the village of Sentmenat.

It is a large Gothic building rebuilt on older foundations. In the fortress, it is reached through a stone bridge that protrudes from the castle and that seems to replace the old drawbridge. The grandeur of its fortress is manifested with walls three meters thick. The castle is made up of two rectangular bodies, arranged octagonally, with the ends joined by another body, the plan of which describes an arc of a quarter circle, more or less regular. These three bodies surround a patio in the shape of a trapezoid.

Sant Llorenç Savall

Highlight • Settlement

The spectacular views that this small town in Vallès Occidental offers of de la Mola, the natural park of Sant Llorenç del Munt i l'Obac, and the Ripoll river are reason enough to visit it. The ruins of the Pera Castle, located on top of a hill between the Roca Sereny and the Baiarols hill, stand out together with the Marquet de les Roques building and the Romanesque church of Sant Feliu de Vallcarca within the legacy of the historical heritage and architecture of a town that invites you to rest.
