Today, this monument, a strong symbol of the city, has become the Catalan Museum of Popular Arts and Traditions. The Castillet was made of three parts: the big Castillet, the small Castillet (former city gate), and a polygonal bastion. The bastion was destroyed in the early 20th century, but the big and small Castillet were saved from demolition.The post Castillet in Perpignan (France).
