Few people know that the church was fortified because this point was exposed to raids and conflicts, and that is why even today it conveys more of a feeling of refuge than of a temple. It was not placed here by chance: it dominates roads and fields, and was a place where people closed themselves in when they needed to protect themselves. Today the silence is deceiving, but the place has more of a defensive than a religious past.

The church was also designed as a refuge: the circular tower is not merely decorative; it served to protect the population from coastal raids. From here, the valley and the passes into the interior could be visually controlled, which is why the surroundings feel so "open" despite the silence. It's a good place to pause for a moment: the contrast between its defensive function and its current tranquility is striking, and the surrounding landscape invites observation rather than a rush.

It's a megalithic tomb, approximately 5,000 years old, discovered in 1997 and restored in 2006-2007. Located in the heart of the Montnegre i el Corredor Natural Park, it's easy to miss, but it has a history: it belonged to a Neolithic community that used it as a collective grave. Interestingly, remains of the tumulus that covered it are still preserved, which is unusual, and its orientation seems related to astronomical events, like other dolmens in the area. It's an archaeological rarity in the middle of a prime cycling area, perfect for stopping and reflecting that humans once walked this path... but without helmets.

But it is locked

Good area

Beautiful views of the coast and mountains

Beautiful path lined with vineyards and pine trees.

Fire watchtower on the summit. You can't climb the tower - but the view from up here is still magnificent.
