The castle of Saburella, or Savorella, in the municipality of Querol (Alt Camp), is built after the Reconquest and is located on the right side of the River Gaià. It is located on a hill (683 m) and its conservation is good enough, especially one of the three semicircular towers, which remains almost entire, and part of the wall.

The few historical news generated by this fortification has made it more difficult to establish a unanimous dating, however we think that its construction must be late, from the end of the 12th-early 13thcentury, and closely related to the conflicts that took place in the neighboring castle of Selmella between the monastery of Santes Creus and els Cervelló.
