Torre Salvana, Medieval castle in Santa Coloma de Cervelló, Spain.

The stone fortress features a defensive tower and multiple rooms spread across two floors, with several remaining hallways despite its deteriorated state.

Built in the tenth century, the castle changed ownership from Counts Ramon and Ermengol to Ennec Bofill in 992, later belonging to Barcelona in 1390.

The castle stands near Colonia Güell, a former textile worker settlement that represents industrial heritage with architecture by Antoni Gaudí.

Visitors can access the castle ruins without entrance fees by walking across the dirt road from the Colonia Güell church parking area.

The fortress contains intact second-floor spaces that provide views of the surrounding landscape and the neighboring Colonia Güell complex.
