Holiday cottages in Arbeca

What can you do in Arbeca and its Holiday cottages?

The beginnings of Arbeca go back to 325 BC in the Iberian town of Els Vilars. During the War of Succession and that of the Reapers, it was the scene of important historical episodes. Walking through the center of the town you will see buildings with stone facades and heraldic shields that give a medieval aftertaste. A well-known event is the Hunting Dog Fair where there is a dog parade. The cultural days where talks, performances and conferences are held are also very interesting.

The castle of the Dukes of Cardona, a unique building

The historical heritage of Arbeca is of great relevance. One of the best-known buildings is the castle of the Dukes of Cardona. Its origin is from the 12th century and it was an old Arab fortress. Very close to the castle there is a viewpoint from where you can enjoy views of the plain of Urgell. Another interesting building is the parish church of Sant Jaume, which dates from the 17th century.

Visit their cooperatives

One of the main attractions of Arbeca is its oil. By visiting their cooperatives you will be able to see what the whole process of producing and distributing the oil is like. In addition, at the end of the visit you can taste local oils and products. Oil is precisely the basis of Arbeca's gastronomy. We recommend the beans with sausage as well as the casserole and the snails with aioli.
