Castle of Peramea

Monument · Baix Pallars, Pallars Sobirà, Lleida

Castle of vernacular architecture in large limestone blocks 50-60 cm thick, documented since 908 under the counts of Pallars; in the 13th century it passed to the Vilamur family, in the 15th to the Bellera family, and later to the counts of Pallars, the dukes of Cardona (1487), and the counts of Erill (1632), who held it until the end of the seigneurial regime. Wall remains survive to the south and west atop a rocky promontory, next to the partially preserved Torre de Colomers, at the southern end of the village.
