Church of the municipality of Callús (Bages) included in the Inventory of the Architectural Heritage of Catalonia. This church was built in 1936 due to the fact that at the end of the 19th century a series of textile industries were installed on the banks of the Cardener River that were a pole of attraction for the population; Thus, a new town was set up on the plain that was far from the parish church located on top of a hill near the castle of Callús.

Castelltallat Castle and astronomical observatory

Highlight • Castle

The ascent to the castle and observatory of Castelltallat is one of the cycling classics of this sparsely populated area. In this mountain range there are only a few farmhouses, which contributes to the low light pollution and makes the installation of an observatory ideal. On the ascent, the views of Montserrat are spectacular.
