The ancient tower of Molí d'en Salvat in Priorat

In the Priorat region, the ruins of Molí d'en Salvat remain as a notable piece of architectural heritage.

The Molí del Salvat de Baix is a historic work in Cornudella de Montsant, located in the Priorat region. It is included in the Inventory of Architectural Heritage of Catalonia.

Although the mill is totally destroyed, a type of tower with very ancient characteristics remains standing. It contains a millstone covered by an ogival vault. The triangular basin is well preserved.

The structure is located at the foot of the river, just a few meters from the mill of Dalt. The Siurana reservoir begins just a few meters from its base.
