At the end of the 12th century, the first El Morell castle was built. Its location guaranteed the defense of the houses that surrounded it. Over time, the castle was degraded until in 1769 it was decided to demolish it. It was in 1778 when the construction of a new castle was commissioned. However, its physiognomy is very different from the classic medieval castle. In fact, its current appearance is that of a house with three balconies and a facade that stands out for its screen prints.

The church dedicated to Sant Martí is another place worth visiting. It is a baroque construction that has only one nave. Its facade has a floral decoration that is not found on the other walls.
