Hiking

Also known as Can Barba de Madrona, it is located at the foot of Puig Madrona, on the path that leads to Can Domènech. The first documents that tell us about the existence of the farmhouse date back to the 13th century. During the French War (1808-1812), the farmhouse was looted and destroyed by Napoleon's troops. During the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) the farmhouse was seized and became a weapons depot and powder keg. It currently belongs to the Companyia de Jesús.
