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.

With nice restaurants and bars

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.

We made a route through this area, Peratallada is a picturesque medieval town located in the Bajo Ampurdán region, in the province of Girona, Catalonia. Its name means "carved stone", referring to the stone used in its construction. Without a doubt, it is the one we liked the most with the permission of the others The town is completely surrounded by walls and defense towers, and its historic core is made up of a set of cobbled streets and stone buildings dating from the 10th century. The church of Sant Esteve, built in the 13th century, is one of the most outstanding monuments of Peratallada. There you will find a terrace where they make good sandwiches. In addition, Peratallada has a wide gastronomic offer, with restaurants that offer typical dishes of the region, in our case it was only a breakfast.

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

The name of Vulpellac appears for the first time in the records in the year 894, although its importance would be given centuries later (13th and 14th centuries), thanks to the importance of the lord of Vulpellac, Guillem Sarriera. It is during this period that the castle is reformed, turning it into a luxurious palace. The castle and the church of Sant Julià i Santa Basilissa constitute the original nucleus of the town, and houses were added around it, surrounded by a fortified wall. The streets outside the walls were built in the 17th and 18th centuries, and have a good number of unique buildings in the late Gothic and Renaissance styles.

This small town in the Baix Empordà has been declared a Historic-Artistic Site and Cultural Asset of National Interest, due to its well-preserved medieval architecture. The original constructions of Peratallada are strongly marked by their fortified character. It had three wall enclosures (12th to 13th centuries), the main one being the one with the castle in its center. In addition, the outer enclosure was protected by a moat dug into the rock, with a depth of eight meters. Of the castle, the keep and the palace (11th to 14th centuries) stand out, with another important building being the church of Sant Esteve (13th century).
