Castle-Palace of the Viscounts of Cabrera Monument · Blanes, Selva, Girona The Palau Vescomtal of the Cabrera family, next to the church of Santa Maria de Blanes, is a Gothic palace recovered by the viscounts in 1381 and the work of the architect Arnau Bargués; now much in ruins, it retains the west façade with a round-arched portal and two trilobed windows. It was blown up by French troops in 1694 and has been an Asset of National Cultural Interest since 1949 (BCIN 552-MH). Photo: Jaume Meneses (CC BY-SA 2.0) What to see and do in Blanes
