Tips from the Community
Before reaching Sant Amanç de Pedrós, the landscape anticipates that you are entering a special place. Surrounded by forests and fields, this small 12th-century Romanesque church retains the simplicity that characterizes many rural churches in Catalonia. Its location, next to the **GR 176**, makes it a perfect stop to pause for a few minutes, enjoy the surroundings, and discover one of those corners where history stopped a long time ago.

The Romanesque church of Sant Cugat del Racó was built between the 11th and 12th centuries and is one of the most unique Romanesque temples in Catalonia. Among its particularities is that it is built with a Greek cross plan, in which the four arms have similar lengths. Furthermore, the transept is finished with a dome through which the light that illuminates the interior enters, and the lantern tower is octagonal. Over the centuries, few interventions have been carried out in this building, so its state of conservation is very good.

The Roc buit, the stone that has seen the history of the BS. Poke it and hear the noise, hug it and feel its power, it charges with every full moon. The unwritten legend explains that it brings luck until the next year.

The cross of Perelló served as a dividing line between the two parishes of Argençola and Castellnou. It belonged to the Casamitjana farmhouse, to which the owners had to pay rent. Apparently, at the beginning of the 20th century, its owner, coming from doing errands in Balsareny with the cart, was surprised by a storm, and died when lightning struck him. In the middle of the 20th century, a tragedy also happened there, this time related to the maquis. It seems that the family that lived there took refuge for a while in the maquis (among others the popular Ramon Vila "Caracremada") in their house and, when they were discovered, the whole family was killed. They also explain that Caracremada himself died there. The episode is remembered by a commemorative plaque that has been hung on its facade and which reads: "In memory of Ramona Bessa and Domingo Rovira / Of the mas de la creueta, guerrilla base in support of the maquis killed in February 1945 for fighting against fascism, and to Ramon Vila, who died in combat on August 7, 1963. IX March of Homage to the Maquis. Sept. 2006.
