    This small town in the Baix Empordà has been declared a Historic-Artistic Site and Cultural Asset of National Interest, due to its well-preserved medieval architecture.

    The original constructions of Peratallada are strongly marked by their fortified character. It had three wall enclosures (12th to 13th centuries), the main one being the one with the castle in its center. In addition, the outer enclosure was protected by a moat dug into the rock, with a depth of eight meters.

    Of the castle, the keep and the palace (11th to 14th centuries) stand out, with another important building being the church of Sant Esteve (13th century).

      The village is just gorgeous. Many small shops sell some nice things, including art.
      Of course all this is marketed touristically 🤷 ♂️🤷 ♂️.

        We made a route through this area, Peratallada is a picturesque medieval town located in the Bajo Ampurdán region, in the province of Girona, Catalonia. Its name means "carved stone", referring to the stone used in its construction. Without a doubt, it is the one we liked the most with the permission of the others

        The town is completely surrounded by walls and defense towers, and its historic core is made up of a set of cobbled streets and stone buildings dating from the 10th century. The church of Sant Esteve, built in the 13th century, is one of the most outstanding monuments of Peratallada. There you will find a terrace where they make good sandwiches.

        In addition, Peratallada has a wide gastronomic offer, with restaurants that offer typical dishes of the region, in our case it was only a breakfast.
