Castle of Lladorre

Monument · Lladorre, Pallars Sobirà, Lleida

Image of Lladorre, not of the place itself.

Castle with a slightly oval plan (about 40 m long by 15-19 m wide), built of slate stone bonded with mud, with arrow slits and interior walls; the municipality of Lladorre is documented since 1146. It preserves walls up to 5 m high in places, though the northwest corner and part of the south wall have collapsed. It belonged to the counts of Pallars until the 15th century, passed to the crown in 1281 after noble revolts, and after the 1491 conquest to the Cardona family and later to the dukes of Medinaceli; today it is privately owned by the Blasi family.
