The old town
Sheltered under the shadow of the great residential palace that is the old medieval castle, and the church of San Juan Bautista, (12th century) watched closely by the August river, is the Tower of Claramunt.
But the Tower of Claramunt is also, nowadays, a place where the urban growth is orderly, a population where the houses of ground floor are generalized with their small garden, where many families, have settled in search of tranquility and of a high quality of life.
The Tower of Claramunt is undoubtedly a town that deserves to be visited, and anyone who does will be able to enjoy its heritage and its privileged natural environment.
