Castellciuró, Medieval castle in Molins de Rei, Spain

The stone fortress stands on a hill within Collserola Natural Park, featuring a circular tower and arrow-slit walls near the Llobregat River.

First documented in the 10th century, the castle formed part of a defensive network protecting the Llobregat valley during the Spanish March period.

The Municipal Museum of Molins de Rei displays a collection of pottery and artifacts from the castle, dating from the 10th to 19th centuries.

Visitors can reach the castle through Camí de Santa Creu d'Olorda path, which connects the structure to the main areas of Molins de Rei.

The castle walls contain sections of opus spicatum masonry from the 10th century, demonstrating early medieval construction techniques in Catalonia.
