With its origins going back to Middle Ages, the grandeur of the Peralada Castle makes it one of the most emblematic landmarks of the Empordà.
It was built outside the town walls, and set amongst its splendid gardens and a Carmelite monastery, which itself has one of the few Gothic cloisters in Catalonia as well as a Gothic church.
In 1923, the Castle was purchased by Miguel Mateu Pla, dreaming to revitalize the oenological traditions of the area. As great lover of art and culture, decorated the castle with his collections of sculptures (mainly medieval and renaissance), altarpieces, tapestries, furniture, paintings, coins, glassware, ceramics, etc. He also enlarge the convent library which currently contains around 80,000 volumes.
The monastery also houses a Wine Museum which has certain elements of the original wine cellar on sow as well as an historical collection of 750 pieces which shows the development of wine-making through the ages.
