Mas de la Torre Gorgue

It is located next to the road from Villarluengo to Tronchón, at the confluence of the Cañada and Palomita rivers, accessible from the road itself.

It is a tower with the function of guarding the crossroads, to which are added other constructions for housing and farming.

The tower has a square ground plan of 7.5 meters on each side and about 10 meters high. It is made of light-colored limestone ashlars, very well squared, in the corners, openings and battlements. The rest of the walls are made of ochre sandstone masonry.

In the interior, on the first floor there are arches on pillars reinforcing the structure of the tower. In one of its walls there are a series of openings with interior spillage in the form of loopholes.
