Castell de Sant Marçal

The fortress exhibits medieval stone construction methods with Gothic architectural elements, including pointed arches and fortified defensive walls spanning the perimeter.

The structure originated as a religious building and underwent transformations through centuries, maintaining its dual purpose as both a defensive structure and place of worship.

Regular prayer services continue within the castle walls, maintaining a connection between religious practices and the medieval architectural heritage of Catalonia.

Located at BP-1413 in Cerdanyola del Vallès, the castle remains under private ownership while the government supervises its preservation and maintenance.
