Castell de Fals, Medieval castle in Fonollosa, Spain
The Torres de Fals consists of two cylindrical towers constructed on adjacent hills, separated by the Fonollosa stream flowing between their positions.
The primary tower, measuring 19.5 meters in height with a 9-meter diameter, was built directly on natural rock using large unworked stones around the year 1000.
The castle complex incorporates the Church of San Vicente de Fals and a parish cemetery, forming a significant medieval architectural ensemble in the region.
Visitors can examine both towers, with one integrated into a residential structure while maintaining its original defensive characteristics from the medieval period.
The fortress deviates from traditional defensive layouts by featuring two separate towers positioned on different hills rather than a single consolidated structure.
