Castell de Castellet, Medieval fortification in Castellet i la Gornal, Spain.

The castle combines Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements, standing prominently on the northern bank of the Foix reservoir in Catalonia.

Construction of the fortress began in 977 with a basic structure consisting of a watchtower and small wall, built upon fortifications from 2500 years prior.

The castle functions as the headquarters of the Abertis Foundation while maintaining its status as a Cultural Asset of National Interest in Spain.

Located at Carrer del Castell in Castellet, visitors can obtain information about guided tours and events by calling the reception at 93 814 45 06.

During the second weekend of June, the castle grounds transform into a medieval marketplace featuring traditional crafts, workshops, and performances.
