Romanesque Bridge of Caldes de Montbui
Highlight • Bridge
The bridge consists of two semicircular arches of different widths, supported by a central pillar and two lateral abutments that link it to the banks of the stream. The largest arch, on the left hand side looking upstream, is the one that saves the passage of water. The arch on the right is smaller and is located on a rocky shelf at a higher level than the level of the torrent bed. Above the central pillar, between the two arches there is an opening crowned with a small semicircular arch that acts as a discharge arch while giving slenderness and reducing the resistance of the bridge to the passage of water in case of large flows.
The oldest documentation of the bridge dates back to the year 1226.

Sentmenat Castle
Highlight • Castle
The castle is in a strategic place. The façade, oriented to the west, is on the margin of the ravine that forms the Sentmenat stream. Built on a flat ridge of the ridge, 1,300 m northwest of the parish church of the village of Sentmenat.
It is a large Gothic building rebuilt on older foundations. In the fortress, it is reached through a stone bridge that protrudes from the castle and that seems to replace the old drawbridge. The grandeur of its fortress is manifested with walls three meters thick. The castle is made up of two rectangular bodies, arranged octagonally, with the ends joined by another body, the plan of which describes an arc of a quarter circle, more or less regular. These three bodies surround a patio in the shape of a trapezoid.
