History of Sant Miquel Castle Currently, Sant Miquel Castle belongs to the municipality of Girona, but until 1974 it belonged to the municipality of Celrà. The architectural complex is located on the top of Puig del Castellar, at 394 meters above sea level. From its strategic location you can see the Valley of Sant Daniel, the town of Celrà, the plain of Empordà and the city of Girona. The complex, made up of a section of wall, a watchtower and a hermitage, dates back to medieval times.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oi0HgiBDuF0The imposing building that we can see today was built in the 15th century on the remains of a medieval castle documented since 1149 and that in the century XIII was owned by Bernat de Creixell. Historians do not agree on whether the monastery of Sant Miquel de Fluvià had the superior lordship. In any case, we know that the Creixells passed by marriage to the Vilaguts and from these to the Rocabertís, already in the 15th century. It was at that time when the first major transformation of the castle took place and when Queen Joana Enríquez, mother of Ferdinand the Catholic, settled there for a while. Since then it has been in the hands of the descendants of Pere de Rocabertí, the Cardona-Rocabertí and then the Sentmenat and the Moxó. Maria Mercè de Sentmenat i de Patiño received the title of Marchioness of Sant Mori in 1893. The castle is located in the middle of the town. It is configured as a large massive block, rectangular in plan, with a central courtyard. The main portal is dovetailed and on the facades there are several bigeminated crown windows, decorated with noble coats of arms, one of which shows the fleurs-de-lis of the Vilagut. Other windows are the result of modern restoration. swIf you want, you can rent it for rooms or weddings... https://www.airbnb.es/rooms/30806789?adults=1&children=0&enable_m3_private_room=true&infants=0&pets=0&check_in=2024-02-29&check_out=2024-03-05&source_impression_id=p3_1704139137_peqk24%2FuplIlvbBN&previous_page_section _name=1000&federated_search_id=8a9627cf-4904-4024- 9e09-702153ebb233

This church, of medieval origin, is part of the most important architectural heritage of the old town of Sant Mori, along with the Sant Mori Castle and other historical buildings. The church is an outstanding testimony of the history and architecture of the area, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the town.

This castle-palace was significantly remodeled in the 16th century on the ruins of an earlier structure. Today, Sant Mori Castle is not only a testament to the region's rich historical past, but also offers a unique holiday experience, with its impressive architectural features such as a charming interior courtyard, three floors full of history, and a garden terrace with pool. In addition, its location allows easy access to cultural and natural attractions in the area, such as the Dalí House Museum and the beaches of the Costa Brava. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rocwax-EevA

The castle of Palagret or Mabarrera is in the middle of the Palagret valley, at the top of a small hill, 178 m high, in the northernmost foothills of the Gavarres massif to the south-east of the Celrà center and to the south- west of Juià. Strategically located to control the Roman-era road that allowed access to Girona from the Baix Empordà through the Gavarres. Important medieval vestiges of the licorella walls of a rectangular construction as well as pre-Romanesque elements are preserved from the castle. The preserved remains could be dated to the 10th and 11th centuries,[1] and its last occupants left the premises between the end of the 15th century and the beginning of the 16th.[2] It is a building in Celrà (Gironès) declared a cultural asset of national interest.

It is possibly the best known and practiced route in Girona. I recommend it to everyone. Doing this route at night is also spectacular.

Ascent with steep gradients, especially when passing the Girona variant until connecting with the path that goes up to Sant Miquel through the Vall de Sant Daniel.

The architectural complex is made up of the old hermitage dedicated to Santa Maria and Sant Miquel, built on top of the previous medieval fortification, from which the bases of a circular tower through the apse are used. It seems that the hermitage was occupied by hermits between the s. XVI and XVIII, although the documentation records the start of construction in the s. XV The location took on military importance during the French war (1808-1814), especially due to the sieges of Girona (1808-1809), where the domain of the castle alternated several times between the Napoleonic army and the Miquelets. After the war, the hermitage was already demolished. The other architectural element is the telegraph tower, erected during the second Carline war (1846-1849) to house the civil optical telegraph line, while the military line was located in the hermitage tower.
