Montbarbat Iberian settlement

At the summit of Montbarbat Mountain on the border of the municipalities of Lloret de Mar and Maçanet de la Selva - Lloret de Mar / Maçanet de la Selva
By car, from the N-II road, take the turn-off for the Montbarbat housing development (Maçanet de la Selva) or, from the C-63, take the turn-off for the Terra Fortuna housing development.  ·  

Large Iberian settlement (6,000 m2) located at a summit of the Catalan Coastal Range, at an elevation of 332 metres, with a commanding view of the Selva Plain, the lower valley of the Tordera River and the sea. Excavation work began in 1978. Two main sectors have been uncovered to date: one in the highest part, with a section of wall, a tower and nine houses attached to the internal part of the wall; and the other in a slightly lower part of the settlement, where evidence has been found of a set of buildings and silos belonging to a sector of rooms for storage and community activities. It dates from between the 6th and 3rd century BC, and entrance is free.
