More than 1,000 years of history Although recent archaeological studies testify to the occupation of the Eramprunyà cliff since prehistoric and Iberian times, the history of the castle begins in the 9th century. In 801 the Franks took the city of Barcelona from the Saracens, who had to retreat to the right bank of the Llobregat. The defense of Barcelona required the protection of the flat area, but also the entire lower part of the Llobregat valley, from Martorell to the sea, as it is a natural area of access to Barcelona. It was also necessary to control the entire coastline and the paths of the Garraf. Some of the castles that were built at this time were those of Cervelló, Castellví de Rosanes, Sant Boi, Corbera, Castelldefels and Eramprunyà.

good views from up there, it is better to go up through the area of the urbanization that is softer, on the river side the climbs are very strong.

On a small hill, above the town of Molins de Rei, are the ruins of the castle that was built in the 14th century on the remains of an old circular defensive tower, called Guadall or Guadallo, of Visigothic origin (8th century) , that is to say, pre-Romanesque. This is confirmed by the remains of a wall lock that used an opus spicatum facing characteristic of that period. On the west facade stands a three-tiered tower where the door and two openings are preserved, one of which is currently reconstructed. There are also remains of the trapezoidal plant, a small tower attached to the rock, the walls of the Guadall tower and the remains of a large cistern, partially drilled into the rock and protected by a barrel vault (10th and 12th centuries ).

The moat tower was built in the middle of the 19th century and was part of the military optical telegraph line from Barcelona to Lleida. It communicated with the towers located in Molins de Rei and Esparreguera with a structure located on the tower that was formed by a fixed vertical pole and a transversal one that could be inclined 45 ° to the left and right, with a circle at each end. A pulley allowed the movement of a third circle up and down the vertical pole, thus achieving a total of 20 possible combinations. At night the circles were replaced by lanterns. On January 24, 1939, the tower, abandoned since the late nineteenth century, became a last point of resistance of Republican troops to the Francoist army. Once restored by Castellbisbal City Council, it is now part of the catalog of 100 elements of Catalonia's industrial heritage. Information extracted from the Castellbisbal City Council website:
