Dolmen de Pedrarca

The prehistoric legacy among the forests of the Montnegre and Corredor Park

El domen de Pedralcha is one of the oldest testimonies of human presence in Llinars del Vallès. Located between this municipality and Vilalba Sasserra, it is part of the Montnegre i el Corredor Park and is listed as a Cultural Asset of Local Interest. It is a megalithic tomb built between 3500 and 2000 BC, probably used as a collective burial space by the prehistoric communities of the area.

The preserved structure is simple: three vertical slabs that form a small burial chamber, covered by a large upper slab slightly displaced. It is just over two meters long and less than a meter high, integrating modestly but significantly into the natural environment. Despite its simplicity, the dolmen is a key piece to understanding the symbolism and the first forms of organization of the territory.

To access it you have to take a short walk through forest tracks without specific signage, so it is recommended to consult a map or app before setting out. Despite not having interpretive elements, the visit to the dolmen fits very well into a wider route through the park, and can be an enriching experience for lovers of nature, history or archaeology.
