Cabeces is a large manor house situated a short distance from the church of Sant Miquel d'Hortmoier, within the valley of the same name, in the municipality of Montagut i Oix. It has a rectangular plan with a broad gable roof and consists of a ground floor, living quarters and an attic: the ground floor, used for livestock, has two voussoir-arched doors on the south and west façades, while the door giving access to the living quarters opens to the north. It is dotted with numerous slender loopholes spread across all its façades, and has later additions of much more recent construction attached to it. Listed as a Bien Cultural de Interés Nacional (Catalonia's highest level of heritage protection), no historical date for its construction has been published.
