Bridge of Besalu

This bridge is the gateway to Besalú and is about 105 meters long and 30 meters high. For us it is one of the most beautiful bridges we have found in Spain and it can be seen from different viewpoints or from the C-66 road.

Admission Not Included

Judería de Besalú

Once we have crossed the bridge, we enter the old Jewish quarter after crossing a large gate with two impressive towers, which lead us through cobbled streets. The main streets that we recommend visiting are Pont Vell, Abat Oliva, Rocafort and Comte Tallaferro. In Rocafort street we find something very curious, sculptures of chairs that were made by artists from Girona and Italy in 1994. In any of these streets we find beautiful corners such as arches, doors or old wells of the Jewish inhabitants who lived in this part. from Besalu. Going up Portalet street there are some houses with inscriptions and mezuzà, which were holes next to the doors where a scroll with verses from the Torah was kept.

Admission Not Included

Sinagoga Miqvé

miqve is a ritual bath used for the purification of men and women within Judaism. The one in Besalú is a small 5×4 meter chamber where the pool was to perform rituals in certain circumstances such as after childbirth, menstruation, before Sabath and Yom Kippur for religious men. It was found by chance in an excavation; It is the first building of these characteristics that has been found in Spain and the third in importance of the ten existing in Europe. It is located under the remains of what was the old Synagogue, from 1264, and the only way to see it is with a guided tour.

Admission Not Included

Església de Sant Vicenç de Besalú

It is one of the oldest Romanesque buildings in Catalonia. It dates from the year 977 and also has some Gothic details such as the rose window and a large window. Inside is the tomb of Pere de Rovira who in 1413 moved the relics of San Vicente to Besalú.

Admission Not Included

Sant Pere, Besalú

It is a monastery of Benedictine origin of which today only the church remains. Also dating from the year 977 and founded by Count Miró de Besalú, it is located in Prat de Sant Pere square. On its façade there is a large window with several Gothic arches and two lions that are symbols of strength, power and the protection that the church offered against evil and paganism.

Admission Not Included

River walk of Besalu

Outside the town is the river promenade on the banks of the Fluviá river, from which one has one of the best views of the bridge and the houses.

Admission Not Included

Portal de la Força

(Pass by)

Of the few remaining remains of the old walls from medieval times we find the Portal de la Força, which is also known as the Portal del Castillo and which gave access to the Força enclosure, which was an extension of the old Visigothic settlement.

Torre Lardera

(Pass by)

Another of the remains of the old wall of Besalú is the Torre Lardera, a circular tower that once had two floors with a raised access door. The road to Figueras passed next to this tower and from the tower one had one of the best views and was used to keep watch in case attackers approached the town.

Antigua canónica de Santa Maria de Besalú

(Pass by)

The primitive chapel of Santa Maria del Castell was a modest work, only intended for the religious service of the palace. When from 1137 it became the seat of an Augustinian community, it had to undergo a few transformations to adapt the constructions of the enclosure to the uses of the new spaces. The original chapel, with the name of Santa Maria del Castell, was a simple work, destined only for the religious service of the palace. A reform in the year 1055 is documented, a fact that suggests a Romanesque church of already consolidated dimensions. From 1137 it became the seat of an Augustinian community. It is, then, in the twelfth century when, according to the requirements of the new community, a new church must be built.

Mirador de Besalú

Viewpoint with beautiful views of Besalú, a fantastic place and spectacular views of the entire river and the bridge.
