Dating back to 957, the castle served as a vital stronghold controlling territories including Gavà, Begues, and Castelldefels. Its strategic significance in the defensive system between Al-Andalus and the Carolingian Empire made it a key political, economic, and military center. Despite facing destruction during the Catalan Civil War in 1469, it witnessed a succession of owners and was eventually acquired in the late 19th century by banker Manel Girona, a figure associated with the completion of Barcelona Cathedral's façade.
The Eramprunyà Castle is located in the municipality of Gavà in the Baix Llobregat comarca of Catalonia, Spain.
