Monestir de Sant Feliu de Guíxols
Monestir de Sant Feliu de Guíxols, Benedictine monastery in Sant Feliu de Guíxols, Spain
The monastery comprises the Mare de Déu dels Àngels church and two defensive towers named Corn and Fum, forming a substantial architectural complex.
Founded in the early 10th century, the monastery received official recognition from Carolingian King Lothair in 968, confirming its administration under Abbot Sunyer.
The Porta Ferrada, a Romanesque architectural element from the 10th century, stands as the primary symbol of Sant Feliu de Guíxols.
The monastery buildings currently house a history museum and will soon become the Carmen Thyssen-Bornemisza Catalan Art Collection Center.
Archaeological excavations beneath the monastery revealed Roman-era structures, indicating continuous settlement at this coastal location for over two millennia.
