Travel Guide

After the forest fire of July 1998 was a decision: if one suffers from trying to land, you must look at the sky. Now, attached to the ruins of the ancient castle of Montedono, a telescope of 400 mm. diameter, equipped and controlled automatically, allowing observation of the universe. The stars, nebulae and galaxies are easily observable. The refractor has sunscreen. The observatory dome with a diameter of 5 feet, was built in 2004 for public institutions to help agritourism in the area.

Excellent location after visiting the monastery in the afternoon. Room clean, restaurants and supermarket nearby and very responsive host. Just make sure you don't take the gondola down because it's one station by train (L5) away!

The Castle of Cardona is arguably the most important medieval fortress in Catalonia and one of the most important in Spain. It is situated on a hill overlooking the river valley of the Cardener and the town of Cardona. The fortress was initially constructed by Wilfred the Hairy in 886. It is in both the Romanesque and Gothic styles, and includes the so-called Sala Dorada and Sala dels Entresols.
