Castell de Granera, Medieval castle in Granera, Spain
The Castell de Granera stands at an elevation of 818 meters, featuring an irregular floor plan adapted to the rocky terrain of Barcelona province.
The castle, first documented as Castrum de Granito in 971, belonged to the County of Manresa and was later offered to Berenguer Ramón I in 1023.
The structure incorporates Romanesque architectural elements, with walls constructed of regular blocks joined with lime mortar and fragments displaying opus spicatum work.
The castle remains are accessible via the Barri del Castell along the Ctra BV-1245, with local tourism offices providing information about visiting conditions.
An unsuccessful attempt to transform the castle into an inn during the 1970s resulted in partial restoration work completed on the northern section.
