Pals

The first documents mentioning Pals date back to the ninth century, when the castle was built. Because of the incessant wars that ravaged the region for centuries, only the defensive construction of this tower is still standing. It is a Romanesque circular tower built between the eleventh and the thirteenth century. 15 meters high, it is based on a natural rock platform. It is also called the Tower of the Hours (Torre de las Horas) since the fifteenth century, it served as a belfry. The walls also will carry the tourists in the Middle Ages. You Can do fully around the village. Four square towers of the twelfth century are still standing: Ramonet, Rom, and lo-Xinel Hospital..
