Torre Lloreta, the tower of the 13th century
Torre Lloreta is a medieval fortified country house with a 13th century defense tower which is located at the confluence of Riera del Tinar and Riera del Jonc in Calonge.
In the Middle Ages, it was used to prevent hacking coming from the Mediterranean Sea and at the time, as an advance of the Catalan kings to control and monitor the baron of Calonge.
Progressively, Torre Lloreta lost the military function to end up being a farmer’s house.
Since 1949 it has been classified as a Cultural Heritage of National Interest.
From the 13th century until today
Since the 90s, reform works have been carried out in the entire country house to avoid its deterioration and also to be able to inhabit it again. In 2017, the spaces that we offer you were completely renovated.
The building has not lost the essence of its past but has been equipped with the best comforts of today.
A sustainable renovation has been made by placing cork as an insulating material and a biomass boiler to heat water.
