Castell d'Eramprunyà, Medieval castle in Gavà, Spain

The castle structure consists of three fortified enclosures with walls reaching 90 centimeters in thickness, positioned at 438 meters above sea level.

First documented in 957, the castle served as a defensive structure between Al-Andalus and the Carolingian Empire along the Llobregat frontier.

The March family, known for their knights and poets, acquired the castle in the 14th century and made substantial architectural modifications to the structure.

Guided visits occur every second Sunday of the month through the Gavà Museum, requiring advance reservations due to limited access conditions.

The castle grounds contain the Sant Miquel de Eramprunyà hermitage and anthropomorphic tombs with inscriptions from Jaume March I dating to the 14th century.
