Llobet Tower

The tower is one of the largest fortified houses in the town of Vidreres. Over the course of its history, it has undergone several changes and metamorphoses.

The three-story central body of the building, which dates back to between the 15th and 16th centuries, has a voussoired and cusped round arch door and windows with imposts on the top floor. On the western side, there is a four-story square defensive tower with openings at the back. On the other side, to the east, there is a secondary building that was adjoined later (between the 18th and 19th centuries), perpendicular to the old part. In the 20th century, a square tower was built on the opposite corner to the existing one.

Inside the building, we find a remarkable and very interesting feature: the mill. Made in the popular Art Nouveau style, it is a hexagonal structure around twenty meters tall, with a spiral staircase inside, decorated with several colorful ceramics. In contrast to the hexagonal body, the crown is round, with a wrought-iron balustrade.

Around 500 meters from the Llobet tower, there is a set of three reservoirs that share its name. They were built by the Llobet family, in the stream of the same name, to irrigate the fields.
