Did you know that the series from TV3 (Catalonia’s* generalist public TV broadcaster) “Les de l ‘hoquei”, whose protagonist is the female hoquei, was recorded in the sports hall of the municipality?
You can also find the Teia Moner’s workshop where you can discover the fantastic world of puppets as an educational and therapeutic tool?
Palau is a municipality historically formed by two population centers: the Palau-solità and the Plegamans. You will find heritage elements as surprising as the Menhir de la Pedra Llarga, a megalithic monument; the church of Santa Maria de Palau, of Romanesque origin, or that of Sant Genís, an imposing construction of the twentieth century.
Oh! And you can’t miss the Medieval Market, which is held every year around the Castle of Plegamans during the month of May, with shows, tournaments with horses, guided tours and much more!
We invite you to spend a different Sunday with your family in Palau, full of culture and nature.
MORNING
Visit to the Castle of Plegamans and the Folch i Torres Museum-Archive
Does the word tripallocavipasec mean anything to you?! It is the greeting of the Kukamuskes, characters from the work of Josep Maria Folch i Torres in the “Les extraordinaries aventures de Massagran” (The Extraordinary Adventures of Massagran). The visit that we propose will allow you to discover the Archive-Museum of the foundation dedicated to the five brothers Folch i Torres (a very prolific family in Catalan culture!) and the magnificent building of the castle.
You can check the conditions of the guided tours on this link.
Visiting hours:
Sundays and holidays, from 10 am to 1pm.
Working days, visit by appointment.
