Rocabruna Castle is a fortification in the Rocabruna neighbourhood, within the municipality of Camprodon. It is a remarkable complex, tower and walls, with opus spicatum in some sectors, declared a cultural asset of national interest. Specifically, the castle dominates a hill surrounded by cliffs, the Tossal del Castell, and its altitude offers the visitor very interesting views over the Pyrenees and the Alta Garrotxa. Its origins date back to the tenth century, and it is now abandoned. It seems that the name of the castle comes from the color of the soil and the stones in the environment, which is very blackened or brown. Access to the castle is quite difficult, since the hill is completely surrounded by forest; it is only possible to reach it through a half-abandoned path that goes up from the base of the mountain, and that passes through the houses of the Vila and Ca l'Arneta.
