The Witches of Caldes: Secrets, Superstition & Shadows
Tour description
Have you ever walked through a quiet town and wondered what secrets its stones hide? In Caldes de Montbui, a charming spa town near Barcelona, fear, superstition, and power once ignited a deadly witch hunt.
Join me on a journey into the heart of the 17th century, when several women—healers, widows, outsiders—were accused of making pacts with the devil. We’ll explore the very streets where they were arrested, imprisoned, tortured and finally hanged in public, all based on suspicion and fear.
We’ll start in Plaça del Lleó, where the story begins, and visit the Roman Baths (the old prison), the Bonvilar house (site of the interrogations), the Ermita del Remei (storm legends), and the gallows hill of Puigdomí, where the executions took place. As we walk, you’ll hear real testimonies, eerie folklore and surprising facts that will bring the past to life.
This is not a morbid or sensationalist tour—it’s a tribute. A way to give voice to those women who were silenced by ignorance, fear, and injustice.
We’ll return full circle to Plaça del Lleó, where history, myth, and memory meet.
If you’re a fan of hidden history, legends, or just want to experience something truly meaningful, this tour is for you.
Book now and uncover the forgotten voices of Caldes’ past. I promise you’ll never look at this town the same way again.
