Santa Reparada church in Cinclaus

A Romanesque church was built on top of a Roman Villa, dedicated to Saint John the Baptist and Saint Eugene, and from 1703 it was renamed Santa Reparada. The castle, from the 14th century, belonged to the Pau family and then passed to the Margarit family in the 16th century. In the 17th and 18th centuries large houses were built belonging to the Peraquintana i Albornar, Concas, Bassedes, Piferrer and Sastre families, and the adjoining farmland was used to cultivate cereals, rice, and fodder, while there was an area for grazing by the old pond.
