The Castell de Peralada has its origins in the 14th century, when it was built as a medieval fortress. It was an important defensive and residential center during the Middle Ages.

Over the centuries, the castle underwent significant renovations, incorporating Gothic and Renaissance elements into its architecture. These changes gave the castle its current appearance.

The castle has been owned by several noble families throughout its history. One of the most notable owners was the Dalí family, whose most famous member, the painter Salvador Dalí, spent part of his childhood in Peralada.

It is famous for its International Music Festival, held annually in the castle gardens during the summer months. It is one of the most prominent cultural events in the region and attracts internationally renowned artists and audiences.

It is also home to the Peralada Casino, a luxurious casino and entertainment complex that includes gambling, gourmet restaurants and a spa. It is a well-known leisure place in the area.

Within the castle facilities, you will also find the Castillo de Peralada Wine Museum, which highlights the region's wine tradition and offers the opportunity to taste local wines.
