산트 셀로니‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 동굴

Fortress never taken by assault, only by blockade, with a system of mine tunnels more extensive than it seems and 18th century bastions hiding under a medieval appearance. The covered path that surrounds it is one of the best preserved in Catalonia and recalls its key role in the wars, when Hostalric was considered the “key to the north” of the country. A short point to see but with a lot of hidden history.

Considered one of the most powerful in medieval Catalonia, but there is a little-known detail: on the hill there was a system of cisterns and underground channels that collected rainwater and brought it to the inner courtyard, which was essential because there is no fountain at the top. Remains of ceramic kilns used during the expansion works in the 14th century have also been found, indicating that some of the material was manufactured directly on the mountain to avoid endless climbs with pack animals. All of this fits with its function as a control center for Montseny, visible from many points, with the Repiaix stream rising on its slopes and the geodesic vertex crowning it. A truly strategic peak.
