Castle of Molinas
The Molinàs Castle is located about four kilometers from the urban center of Colera, within the former historical term of the Sant Quirze de Colera abbey.
We did not find documentation that makes an explicit reference to the castle, but it seems that its origin could date back to the 12th-13th centuries and its use would have been the coastal defense of the abbey.
Its construction would have taken advantage of the remains of a previous tower. Currently, we can observe a very devastated rectangular building, of which two bodies of buildings are preserved.
Visit Colera
A secluded spot away from the crowds
Colera is a municipality located between Llançà and Portbou, in the north of the Costa Brava. The town centre is small, and is very secluded around the seafront of the bay of Colera.
It is a very suitable town for active tourism. From Colera, you can enjoy several hiking and cycling routes, discover beautiful natural areas, discover the remains of its megalithic culture or visit historic buildings such as Sant Miquel de Colera church or the Molinàs castle.
Water sports lovers will also find incredible spots for paddle surfing, snorkelling or kayaking, such as Rovellada cove.
