Requesens Castle is an old fortress in this region of Alt Empordà. It is a medieval building that was built in the 11th and 12th centuries.

Throughout its history, Fort de Bellegarde was the scene of numerous conflicts and battles, including the wars between France and Spain, as well as the Napoleonic Wars. However, over time and with changes in political and military circumstances, its strategic importance diminished. Today, Fort de Bellegarde is a historic and tourist site. Visitors can explore its imposing walls, towers and passageways, and learn about its fascinating history through exhibits and guided tours. The fortress offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape and remains a tangible reminder of the importance of border defence in European history.

@Marcus. It's very sad that you resort to editing and cropping photos that were not taken by you and pretending that you had been there in order to get points and become the leader of a region (Ceret).

It was built by the Lords of Saint Cristau, who later took the name of Montesquieu. The keep forms an imposing building with a width of 16 metres and a length of 22 metres. The castle was protected by a wall 12 m high. From the top you have a great view of the plains of the region.

You should climb up and enjoy the view. The bike path only shows the tower from below, nothing else.

Only open on weekends and only with a guided tour: 11:30 Catalan, 12:00 Spanish.

Requesens Castle: this 11th century castle, which belonged to the counts of Rosselló, the Empúries and finally the Rocabertís, Viscounts of Peralada, was, like many others, in ruins in the 19th century. It consisted of three walled enclosures, each subdivided into two (see plan). At the end of the 19th century, the counts of Peralada, the brothers Tomàs and Adelaida de Rocabertí, rebuilt it, creating an immense building that respects its medieval appearance. As there is a monographic book about this castle, of which I am the author, I refer to this the accurate description of this complicated architectural ensemble. In the valley of Requesens, above the castle, a large rock juts out flanked by swords, it is known as "Roc de l'Atalaiador" and, although we have not found any remains, it is very likely that a tower was erected or bastida, the XI-XII centuries, related to the defense of the castle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPROZhhC_nc
