Castell de Peralada Museum (Convent del Carme)

Highlight • Castle


Carmel Convent - Castle Museum
Gothic building of which the Carme Convent stands out with its cloister and its church, which preserves an exceptional polychrome wooden coffered ceiling.


Inside the old Carme Convent, there is one of the most spectacular private collections in all of Catalonia.

The Library, with nearly 80,000 volumes and more than 1,000 editions of El Quixote, is another of the great attractions of this visit. The Museum of Glass, which contains one of the largest and best collections in the world, continues to amaze. You can see a wide selection of Catalan glass and numerous representations of glass from all eras.

And finally the Wine Museum, which was created in the 60s in the cellar where Peralada wines were made until then. All the elements and objects on display correspond to the culture of wine in any of its phases.

Carmelite Convent

Highlight • Religious Site

The origin of this convent of Carmelite friars surely dates back to a church dating from the end of the 13th century that was located outside the city center of Perelada. It consists of a church and a cloister and currently houses the Museu del Castell (de Peralada).

This museum houses several private collections: the library, with more than 100,000 books, the cloister, which houses the lapidary collection, the glass collection, with more than 2,500 pieces, and the wine museum, with a wide collection of objects related to the local viticulture. Of its church, its roof with a polychrome wooden framework stands out, discovered during a 19th century restoration when clearing a false vault.

Castle Gate of Peralada

Highlight • Castle

On the way to the castle you drive under the stone arch. This must have been a gate in the past.

Peralada Castle

Highlight • Castle

Located within the current urban center of the town of Peralada, but outside the walled enclosure of the medieval town, on the east side. The whole complex is surrounded by a large garden and, through a bridge built in the 19th century, it communicates with the grounds of the Carmel convent.
