Discover the fascinating history of this imposing structure, a grand farmhouse that, despite being referred to as a castle, does not exhibit the appearance of a fortress or even a palace, but rather that of a large fortified farmhouse. The name Vilamaniscle Castle likely stems from its enormous proportions and its prominent location within the urban core. With a rectangular layout and spread across a ground floor and two stories, it features a pitched roof.
On the main facade, a relief emblem with Baroque decoration and an inscription proclaiming “«NADA SIN DIOS»” (“Nothing without God”) stands out. At the top of the facade and on the north side, two large corbels are preserved, which likely once supported a defensive machicolation. In the same vein, some arrow slits were opened, although today they appear sealed. The western wall features arrow loops, while the interior of the farmhouse is in a very poor condition.
Explore this place steeped in history, where each stone tells the passages of time and reveals the secrets of Vilamaniscle Castle that, despite its current deterioration, retains charm and mystery.
