El Castellot

Highlight • Historical Site

Located on the hill of the same name, at an altitude of 468 meters, on the Marmellar stream and dominating the entire extension of the Penedès plain, the Castellot is one of the most recognizable surveillance and defense structures of the medieval period.

This small fortress had the mission of serving as a lookout and defense of the territory in the event of an attack by the Saracens. Due to its small size, it never had a castle structure, it was just a watchtower and defense tower, with a small attached construction and next to it the primitive chapel of Sant Miquel.

The complex is dated between the end of the 10th century and the beginning of the 11th century, with some modifications made in the 13th century, before being abandoned and becoming a temporary refuge for shepherds, vagabonds and bandits. A second phase of restoration was completed in March 2021, mainly focused on the watchtower, the upper part of which can now be accessed via an internal staircase.

Mur Tour de Flandes

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Although its official name is "cámí de Can Mitjans", this section is known as Mur Tour de Flandes due to the hardness of its gradient and its rough asphalt, in honor of the hard sections of this cycling classic that is contested in Belgium It connects the Can Margarit road with the Carronya, thus avoiding a section of the road between Vilafranca del Penedès and Sant Jaume dels Domenys.
