Torre Negra
Spain, Spain
Torre Negra is a 12th-century stone fortress located near Sant Cugat in Catalonia, northeastern Spain, constructed around 1145 to defend the monastery's territories against invasions.
Positioned strategically on high ground, the three-story tower features arrow slits, cannon ports, iron-barred windows, and an observation platform, built primarily by the Vilanova family who were early monastery founders.
Used sparingly in minor 15th-century conflicts, it has remained privately owned since, preserving its medieval defensive architecture amid Catalonia's historic landscape.
