House of Culture
The House of Culture, also known as the old Hospital of San Miguel, was a baroque-style building located in Tossa de Mar and founded in 1773 by the will of Tomás Vidal Rei, considered a precursor of the Indians.
The Hospital replaced the old hospital for the poor in Vila Vella, which was in ruins.
In 1903, it was converted into a nunnery and, since 1984, it has been the House of Culture.
Visit Tossa de Mar
Medieval architecture in Costa Brava
Tossa de Mar is one of the most emblematic and photographed towns on the Costa Brava. One of the main reasons for the town's interest is its spectacular fortified mediaeval centre, declared as National Historic-Artistic Monument.
The village is practically isolated from the neighbouring towns due to its rugged location. Thus, its landscape is determined by cliffs, small coves and countless corners of great natural beauty.
This setting is an ideal place to enjoy cultural tourism with a visit to the medieval centre and the Ametllers Roman Village, or active and sports tourism with its routes on foot or by mountain bike.
