Day 274 - 12/06/2014 : Peretallada

Look at this, one of the most beautiful medieval town in Catalonia.

Peratallada is a town in the municipality of Forallac, in the shire of Baix Empordà. It is located 22 km east of Girona.

Its name is derived from pedra tallada, meaning 'carved stone'. Declared a historic-artistic monument, most of the buildings are built from stone carved from the fosse or moat which still encircles parts of this small fortified medieval town.


A festival – the Festa Major, is held every year in early August with concerts and activities and there is a medieval festival in the autumn, now you've all you need to plan a visit !
