Can Fargas, Medieval masia in Horta-Guinardó, Spain

The Can Fargas complex features a central Romanesque tower surrounded by buildings added during different construction periods throughout its existence.

Dating from the 14th century with additions in the 15th century, Can Fargas contains an 11th-century tower that stands as its central architectural element.

The property represents traditional Catalan rural architecture and maintains its status as a Cultural Asset of National Interest within Barcelona's heritage collection.

The Barcelona City Council acquired Can Fargas following residents' requests, and the site now functions as the Horta-Guinardó Municipal Music School.

The cellar of Can Fargas, constructed in 1774, remains intact and provides evidence of agricultural practices from the 18th century.
