The tower of the Ardèvol castle is located on top of a small rock, in the center of the town of the same name, next to the parish church of Santa Maria which was the parish church. The administrative center is near the sanctuary of Santa Maria de Pinós, at the top of the Serra de Pinós (931 m). Source: Wikipedia

I grew up there, long before the observatory and the archaeological works at the Castle. When we were little, it seemed to us that the idea that there was a castle behind the church was a chimera. When it was brought to light, it seemed like magic.

This section, which runs between Molins and Rajadell, parallel to the train track, is well known and frequented by local cyclists.

Small town on the service road and parallel to the transversal axis, between Manresa and Calaf, possible stopping point where you can find water and refreshments.

From the Castelltallat Observatory we can observe magnificent views of the Pla de Bages and Montserrat.

Magnificent tower documented in the year 986, and which has now been remodeled. It is in the center of Ardèvol and the municipality of Pinós, next to the church of the same name. We can ask for the keys at the bar in front.

The Ardèvol Castle or Ardèvol Tower is a building in the municipality of Pinós (Solsonès) declared a cultural asset of national interest. The tower of the castle of Ardèvol is located at the top of a small hill, in the center of the village of the same name, next to the parish church of Santa Maria which was its parish church. https://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castell_d%27Ard%C3%A8vol

The Serra de Castelltallat is a very unpopulated place, there are only a few farmhouses that give very little light at night, the location of the Observatory, a thousand meters high and isolated from any urban center, means that become a privileged place for observing the sky. https://astrocastellblog.wordpress.com/
