What to see and do?
Ancient Paintings
The Capçanes valleys are home to a treasure in the form of cave paintings, a benchmark for their uniqueness and quantity: they represent the highest concentration of paintings – within a 2 km radius – in all of Catalonia. It is a set of 19 sites located in three ravines in the surroundings of the Sierra de Llaberia, of great artistic quality and surprising for their theme.
Celler de Capçanes
We show you the land we inherited through our wines.
In Capçanes, in the south of Priorat, our lands and our people have centuries of wine-growing history and we feel very proud to be able to bottle this tradition today. Celler de Capçanes was founded by five brave families in 1933, 100 years ago.
Dry Stone Route
Capçanes is located in one of the two areas with the richest dry stone constructions in the region (the other area is the Montsant River and the mountain ranges that surround it). In Les Taules area, located to the east of the urban center of the town, a great diversity of dry stone elements is concentrated in a fairly small space.We can see walls, barracks, shelters, corrals, small closets, beehives, land divisions with piles and a lime kiln.
