After eating, it’s time to begin exploring the upper town starting with the Street Jussà and Calle de les Piques where you will see many overpasses. In the corner of the fountain, make a short stop, to see a plate located at high altitude, indicating the height reached by the flood of Santa Tecla that occurred in September 1874 and in which 90 houses were lost due to the overflow of the river Corb.
The greatest charm of Guimerà is in the medieval part forming the nucleus of the town, a maze of narrow streets going up in an almost poetic way to the church of Santa Maria or to the Tower, where you can enjoy incredible views of the roofs of the village and the surrounding landscape.
