Castell de Castellcir, colloquially known as Castell Cir, is a Romanesque castle nestled in the Moianès municipality. Designated as a cultural heritage site, it sits majestically atop La Popa cliff, reachable via the riera de Castellcir, passing the old town of Castellcir and the church of Sant Andreu. The Cami del Castell is the route that guides you to the castle, ascending steeply to the northeast. The history of Castell de Castellcir extends back to 1014, entwined with the Castellcir dynasty, with Gerard de Castellcir existing among its earliest ancestors.
