Castell de Montcortès, Medieval castle in Montcortès de Segarra, Spain.

Castell de Montcortès is a castle that blends Gothic and Renaissance architectural styles in the area around Montcortès de Segarra. The structure sits elevated on its terrain and combines fortress features with the more refined design approaches of Renaissance palaces.

Montcortès Castle is first documented in 1095, when the knight Guillem Isarn de Trevics left it in his will to the child his wife was expecting. In 1306 Berenguer d'Anglesola held the lordship, which passed to the Llompard family by 1381. Joan Sacirera commissioned the present Renaissance building: the contract with master builder Joan Barrufet is dated 1493 and survives. The Moxó family, who inherited it in 1622, still owns it.

The castle has been a Cultural Asset of National Interest and remains in the hands of the Moxó lineage, owners since 1622, when Baltasar Ausiàs Marc died without heirs and the property passed to his widow Anna Maria de Moixó. The poet and jurist Pere Ausiàs Marc i d'Oluja, lord of Montcortès, Clariana and la Goda, was among its notable owners. The building stands beside the 16th-century church of Santa Anna, above the 17th- and 18th-century farmhouses of the village.

The castle remains in the hands of the Moxó family, who still own it, so the interior is not open as a public monument. The building stands on the highest point of the village, above a large cliff and facing the chapel of Santa Anna, with the farmhouses of the 17th and 18th centuries below. The main façade is the easiest part to examine from outside: the round-arched doorway, the three large windows of the noble floor and the brick eaves running along the whole perimeter.

The 1493 building contract between Joan Sacirera and master builder Joan Barrufet survives, an unusual document for a Catalan castle. The Moxó family, who inherited it in 1622 through Baltasar Ausiàs Marc's widow Anna Maria de Moixó, still owns the castle today.
