Espinzella is a Romanesque farmhouse in Viladrau (Osona) declared a Cultural Property of National Interest.

It is now a farmhouse and residential house. The Espinzella mansion is a group of buildings built in three distinct periods, although all of them are inscribed within the perimeter walls.

The first phase (Romanesque) corresponds to the chapel dedicated to Sant Miquel and the walls. The most relevant fragment corresponds to the southern area, with a slope and the main fortified gate that gave way to the inner courtyard of the enclosure. These walls extend to the east coinciding with the apse of the chapel. The apse of the church shows signs of having previously been a defense tower. The second phase (Gothic) would correspond to the rectangular house. From this same period it would be one of the sections of the outer wall, which would already be located in a very high place. The rural constructions of the south-western corner and the place where the residence was built in the 19th century belong to the third period.
