Castell de Godmar

Castell de Godmar is a fortified house in Pomar de Dalt with a lateral facade featuring battlements, towers, and walls incorporated from different periods. The structure merges medieval elements with later modifications that shape its current appearance.

Built around 1030 on a Roman villa site, the structure evolved from a defensive tower into a noble residence by the 15th century. This transformation reflects how the region transitioned from military concerns to wealth and stability.

The Chapel of Sant Crist displays religious artworks including a statue by Ramon Amadeu and a crucifix restored by Frederic Marès. These pieces reflect the connection between local craftsmanship and devotion in the region.

The property is a private residence viewable from outside, while its former agricultural terraces function as a Pitch and Putt course. Visitors should respect property boundaries and confirm access times beforehand.

The interior preserves furniture and paintings that escaped looting in 1936, maintaining an authentic collection of historical objects. This rare preservation gives visitors insight into the original life of the inhabitants.
