Symbol of the municipality. Started in 1294 at the orders of King James II, due to a confrontation with the earldom of Empúries, the works were interrupted in 1301 and the building left unfinished. The walls were raised, forming a square with the four towers built onto each of the corners. Restoration work was carried out in 1988. The castle can be reached from Torroella, on foot, along a signposted mountain path
