The old Castle of Torelló, was the jurisdictional center of all the valley, and gave name to the three main populations of its old term: Torelló or Sant Feliu de Torelló, Sant Pere de Torelló and Sant Vicenç de Torelló. Saderra also originally belonged to its territory, but it separated very early, in the 11th century. This castle is currently remembered as a massive circular tower that stands on top of a marly hill, north of the town of Sant Vicenç and within its municipality, almost next to the border with Sant Pere de Torelló.
It is clearly visible from the whole Torelló valley and also from the Ter valley, which runs along its western side, as its hill, 781 meters high, is the highest point of the small ridge that separates the lower course of the Ges valley, from the Ter valley. Seen from the side of Torelló, the hill seems lower because it is the backdrop of the Bellmunt mountain range, but if you approach it, you will notice the excellent conditions of defense that it had, and that they were being the main reason why, in very distant times, this place was chosen to build a castle.
It is a building declared a cultural asset of national interest.
