A SPECTACULAR MODERNIST CASTLE IN A PROTECTED NATURAL PARK WITH TOURIST LICENSE, LA SELVA, GIRONA

About

This spectacular castle, a masterpiece of modernist architecture, stands proudly in the heart of a protected natural park in La Selva, Girona. Designed by the illustrious architect Enric Sagnier i Vilavecchia, the property exudes historical charm and timeless elegance. Renovated in 2018, the castle has been thoughtfully restored to serve as an exclusive venue for private events, while retaining its grandeur and potential for future development.


Built in 1894, this Cultural Asset of National Interest reflects a harmonious blend of eclectic and classicist styles, with a notable modernist influence. The castle’s unique character is further enhanced by its French chateau-inspired construction, featuring an imposing round tower, slate roofs, and an exquisite chapel adorned by a renowned sculptor. The chapel, with its sacred bronze heart, is a smaller rendition of the one atop the Temple of Tibidabo in Barcelona.


The estate encompasses a built area of 1,500 m², nestled within an expansive plot of 15.5 hectares. The surrounding landscape is a testament to nature’s beauty, with lush forests, several meticulously maintained gardens, and panoramic views of the Montseny mountains. The property’s location within the Guilleries Natural Park ensures a serene and secluded environment, making it an ideal retreat for those seeking tranquility and natural beauty.


Since 2019, the castle has opened its doors as a sought-after location for weddings and exclusive events. With its historical significance and architectural splendor, it holds immense potential to be transformed into a luxury hotel or a retreat center, offering guests an unparalleled experience in the heart of nature.
