Castell de Santa Florentina, Medieval castle in Canet de Mar, Spain

The castle combines Roman foundations with Gothic architecture, featuring stone walls, defensive towers, and decorative gargoyles crafted by sculptor Carles Flotats i Galtés.

Built in the 11th century by Guadimir de Canet, the castle underwent major renovations in 1910 by architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner.

The castle houses a collection of early 20th-century Catalan art and serves as a venue for classical music festivals during summer months.

Visitors can schedule guided tours to explore the castle grounds, interior rooms, and learn about its architectural evolution through different periods.

The castle served as a filming location for the sixth season of Game of Thrones, representing Horn Hill in the television series.
