Santa Clara's Convent
The convent of the nuns of the order of Saint Clare in Castrelló was founded on the outskirts of the village in the year 1260. It was later moved into the center of the village towards the end of the 17th century due to the damage caused by the wars.
The convent, built around the year 1683 consists of a church with just one nave and an austere cloister with galleries of round arches around which the nun’s quarters where organised.
