The Church of Santa Maria de l’Alba in Tàrrega is a Baroque church with a single nave and interconnected side chapels, following the Jesuit model typical of the 17th century. Designed by Friar Josep de la Concepció and built on the site of the former church, it boasts a bright interior where the paintings by Minguell and the relics of the Holy Espines stand out. The image of Santa Maria de l’Alba, patron saint of the Albas of Catalonia, completes a very interesting cultural visit in the heart of Tàrrega.

Bellpuig Castle preserves the remains of an old 16th-century residential fortress, although its origins date back to the 11th century. Despite looting and subsequent renovations, the lower galleries can still be explored, and part of the southeast wall can be seen, allowing one to imagine its former grandeur. Today, the building houses municipal offices and a music school, and is an interesting stop for learning about the area's noble history during a tour of Bellpuig.
