Culture and heritage

Turó de Gardeny - Castle of Gardeny

The Castle of Gardeny, located on the eponymous hill, is a fortified enclosure around a castle erected by the Templar Knights in the Middle Ages. Transformed for different uses over the years, it has been recovered and now houses a centre of interpretation which helps explain the legacy of the monastic order which established itself there originally.

This is one of the city’s most undiscovered spaces. Located on the southern periphery of Lleida, its views over the city, the Segre River and the farmland are certainly privileged. Not in vain did the Templars build one of the order’s most important castles there in the 12th century.

 

Today, it is possible to visit the building’s remains, with access to its roof and the museum representation of the daily life which went on there when it served as a leading military stronghold.
