Castell de Puig-alder
It was first documented in 1021, in the will of Count Bernat Tallaferro of Besalú. The castle was destroyed by earthquakes, and today there are only remains of walls on the mountain of Sant Salvador. The only witness to its existence is the church of San Salvador, a vestige of what had been the old chapel of the castle, but nothing remains of the Romanesque building dating from the 12th century, since the current construction is a recent reconstruction.
