Turó de la Roca has historically been a prominent point in the municipality of Sant Martí Sarroca. Although the first references are from the 10th century, when it served as a surveillance and protection point, there are indications of previous Iberian and Roman settlements. The monumental complex is made up of the Romanesque church of Santa María, restored in 1906, and the castle of Sant Martí, built in the 11th century.

Located on the hill of the same name, at an altitude of 468 meters, on the Marmellar stream and dominating the entire extension of the Penedès plain, the Castellot is one of the most recognizable surveillance and defense structures of the medieval period. This small fortress had the mission of serving as a lookout and defense of the territory in the event of an attack by the Saracens. Due to its small size, it never had a castle structure, it was just a watchtower and defense tower, with a small attached construction and next to it the primitive chapel of Sant Miquel. The complex is dated between the end of the 10th century and the beginning of the 11th century, with some modifications made in the 13th century, before being abandoned and becoming a temporary refuge for shepherds, vagabonds and bandits. A second phase of restoration was completed in March 2021, mainly focused on the watchtower, the upper part of which can now be accessed via an internal staircase.

This church is sandwiched between trees and the Castellví de la Marca cemetery and can only be clearly seen from the path that comes from Sant Jaume dels Domenys. In order to see its base, you have to go to one of the entrances to the cemetery.
