토데라‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪7‬개의 동굴

This farmhouse is very special: it's built taking advantage of the natural shelter of a large rock and is located next to the Fontscalents stream. This spot has been home to different generations for over a thousand years, from medieval times until very recently, making it a place steeped in history. Although its name is already mentioned at the end of the 12th century, the building that stands today is the result of later renovations, especially from the 17th and 18th centuries. Some dates engraved in the stone still offer clues to these works. The façade, with its irregular and rustic appearance, blends elements of well-worked stone with simpler walls made of rubble and mortar.

Time waits for no one, and it's currently inaccessible for security reasons 😞

Sant Llorenç Castle is a castle in the municipality of Sant Julià de Vilatorta (Osona) declared a cultural asset of national interest. There are remains of fortifications at the monastery and the base of a square tower at the top of the mountain. It was a termed castle, then a monastery. Documented in 884. At the beginning of the 11th century it was supplanted by the Castle of Meda and soon became the residence of Augustinian canons.

Exceptional farmhouse built under a balma, next to the stream of Fontscalents. This place was inhabited from the early medieval period until the beginning of the 21st century. The toponym has been documented since 1192 and the farmhouse itself, since 1408. The construction that has come down to us is later, built between the 17th and 18th centuries. From this century there are several dates inscribed on the lintels: 1748, 1755. The facade, completely irregular, preserves several doors and windows framed with well-cut stone, while the facing is made of pebbles and little or no worked stones tied with mortar

Throughout history the castle was confiscated from the Centelles and became a royal residence during the Catalan Civil War during the period 1462-1472. It was also a gathering point for troops on more than one occasion during the Uprising of Catalonia (1640-1659) and later, in the War of the Spanish Succession (1705) it was the area from which the Vincentian migueletes supporting Archduke Charles blocked the Filipista troops of Viceroy Velasco. During the Spanish War of Independence, French troops, in 1809, occupied the town of Centellas and the castle. During the Carlist wars, the parties turned it into one of the dens from which they attacked neighboring towns.

The owners have always been from the Centelles family, originating from a farmhouse in the area that was ennobled and became feudatories of the counts of Barcelona. It is the family name that the towns closest to the castle will adopt: San Martín de Centellas y Centellas. Later it was important as a stately place, from which an extensive barony was controlled that brought together the current municipalities of Centellas, San Martín de Centellas, Tona and Seva, and that reached the Vallés Oriental, controlling the entrance to the Congost valley and the plain. from Vic.
