Without Salt Mountain there would be no Castle. The impregnable fortress was built to control the exploitation of salt, white gold. Two visits connected by the thread of salt history and the splendor of Cardona’s past.

The visit to Cardona Castle offers the chance to explore the modern fortress and parts of the old comital castle, such as the Minyona Tower and the exceptional Collegiate Church of Sant Vicenç, a jewel of Catalan Lombard Romanesque architecture.
Approximate duration: 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Visit starts at: the Visitor Information Office at the Castle.

The Cultural Park of the Salt Mountain offers visitors a guided tour of approximately 1 hour through a 500-metre gallery, more than 80 metres deep, to discover the heart of the Salt Mountain in all its splendour and uniqueness.

We recommend leaving a two-hour gap between the start of one visit and the next.
