Castell de Florejacs

The castle features a central courtyard, stone walls, and a defensive tower rising over 20 meters above the fortified perimeter at 491 meters elevation.

First documented in 1304, the castle underwent modifications during the 14th century and played a strategic role in controlling the Llobregós river valley.

The architectural elements demonstrate the evolution of construction methods from Gothic to Renaissance periods, representing different phases of Spanish medieval fortification design.

The medieval fortress sits 116 kilometers from Barcelona, with regular guided tours available through advance reservations at the municipal tourism office.

The noble room contains Renaissance windows and an original fireplace, while the ground floor preserves medieval cellars and kitchen spaces.
