Fornells de la Selva

Province: Girona | Shire: Gironès | Inhabitants: 2.343 | Extension: 11,9 Km2 | Altitude: 102 m

Fornells is located on the Girona plain, in the middle of the middle valley that the Onyar crosses. The course of the river draws a zigzag along the flat landscape and provides a great abundance of water in lands of trees and cereal fields.

The town, located to the left of the river, preserves the remains of an old castle from the 10th century, now converted into a farmhouse, with the Romanesque chapel of Santa Maria del Castell.

The church of Sant Cugat and the Governor's tower are the other outstanding elements of the local heritage.
