Mas Castell de Porqueres

Monument · Porqueres, Pla de l'Estany, Girona

Successor to the old castle of Porqueres, documented since 957 with Ademar I as castellan; the lineage took the surname Porqueres in the 11th century and gave rise to the barons of Santa Pau. The current building, remodelled in the 17th century as a three-wing farmhouse, retains medieval walls at its base.
