A town with a great history that is worth visiting 🤩

The Transéquia As a tribute to the people who built the irrigation canal between 1339 and 1383, which still provides a large flow of water to the city of Manresa today, the Young Chamber of Manresa began organizing the Transéquia in 1985. Starting from Balsareny, it passes through the municipalities of Sallent, Santpedor and Sant Fruitós de Bages and reaches the Parc de l'Agulla de Manresa. In 2014, the Fundació Aigües de Manresa - Junta de la Séquia took over from the Young Chamber and has been organizing it ever since.

Pleasant walk through Talamanca and its surroundings with a moderate slope. The route runs along well-marked tracks and is marked with milestones with white and green labels. With this itinerary we will discover the medieval origins of Talamanca based on its cultural and natural heritage. The route follows a section of the stream between small gorges and waterfalls that have emerged between the rocks. The itinerary discovers constructions such as the dry stone huts, the water lilies or the unique area of the balma salt of the Gobians and a part following the stream bed, scene of one of the most important battles of the war of succession. Part of the excursion goes through Sant Llorenç del Munt i l'Obac Natural Park.

The original building, built in the 11th century, was the embryo of the town and the political center of the district. It was part of the network of castles aimed at the defense of the colonists who repopulated the lands conquered by the Saracens. In the twelfth century, the Saracen threat faded but the process of feudalization caused disputes between Castilians for control of the castle, with several sagas taking place: the Cardona, the Talamanca, the Castellbell. In 1717, Bourbon troops demolished the castle, a fate shared by many of the castles of Old Catalonia. In the 18th century, the Castellbells built the manor house with a tower.

A good place to stop and make a vignette

The sections of the Sèquia combine beauty, nature and transport you to the medieval past of the Canal, especially the Section of Roure Gros and the sections of Mas de les Coves.
