Storia

Known since remote times. Formerly it was called Espluga Baladora; the first reference is from the year 1175 and it seems it served as a refuge for bandits. The documentation from 1692 taken from the communion book of the church of Sant Martí says that, in la roca foradada of the castle of Castellcir live en Valentí Roma and Magdalena, his wife; with this documentation it is shown that it was not a rock shelter of sporadic occupation but rather an authentic farmhouse.
