Castell d'Enfesta
Castell d'Enfesta, Catalonia
Castell d'Enfesta is a medieval Gothic fortress on a hilltop at La Molsosa, in the rolling countryside of central Catalonia. Its earliest documented mention dates from 1081, and its ancient tower, stone halls, Gothic arches and hidden corners still tell that long story (Wedinspire).
Marry on a panoramic terrace, in the stone courtyard or in the castle's church, then dine on the terraces with the valley spread out below. The castle seats up to 160 for dinner or more than 250 for cocktails, and it is about 45 minutes from Barcelona Airport, with Calaf station 10 minutes away.
