Imposing wall of Montblanc, perhaps the best preserved fortified enclosure in Catalonia

The imposing wall of Montblanc, perhaps the best preserved fortified enclosure in Catalonia, owes its construction to the fortification project of the Catalan cities ordered by King Pere III in the 11th century. Encircling a perimeter of 1,500m2 and originally composed of thirty stone defense towers, the wall was divided into four main sections accessible through the four unique entrance gates to the city, corresponding to the cardinal points: the portals of Sant Antoni and Sant Francesc, and the tower-gates of Sant Jordi and Bové.

N'hésitez pas à grimper jusqu'au parc
Montblanc est un joli village médiéval entouré de murailles, longues de 1,5km et coupées par pas moins d’une trentaine de tours crénelées et de quatre portes placées aux points cardinaux. Généralement, trois faces des tours seulement sont recouvertes, ce qui fait que l’intérieur est découvert. On observe que plusieurs d’entre elles ont été transformées en habitations. Il y a aussi une tour à base pentagonale, la Tour de « Cinc cantons ».
Il faut monter au sommet de la colline – un parc y est aménagé où on peut aussi voir les vestiges des fondations du château. De là, la vue sur les murailles vaut le coup d’œil, photo à l’appui!

Très jolies murailles bien conservées qui font tout le tour de la ville. Mérite de jeter un coup d'oeil !
