Rupit (officially part of Rupit i Pruit municipality) is a village in the county of Osona, in the Catalan subregion of the Collsacabra. It is located at 822 m above sea level, 98 km from Barcelona.
In 1959 the municipality was officially named Rupit. In 1977, the
hamlet of Pruit was united with Rupit village. And now it's officially

In origin both the hamlet of Pruit and the village of Rupit already shared the same jurisdiction under the viscount of Osona. According to the tradition, he lived in the castle of Rupit before moving to Cardona.
Nowadays Rupit is best known as a tourist town, because of its
medieval appearance, stone houses and streets made of natural rock.
There are also interesting walks and sightseeing around the village and
nearby cliffs.
Definitely, it's a must-see !!!
