REVIEW IN SPANISH. ENGLISH BELOW.
Del llamado castillo de Sarria queda una maltrecha torre en una era llena de zarzas a la que el ayuntamiento ha decidido ignorar.
Aunque estas ruinas andan muy flojas en las valoraciones por razones obvias yo quiero revalorizarlas dentro del conjunto urbano de Sarria.
Estas ruinas son lo que unas ruinas deben ser. Terreno agreste y descuidado y los restos bastante enteros de una antigua torre. Tiene encanto tanto la construcción como la barroca escalada que hay que hacer trepando a un muro para hacer la foto.
Y, honestamente, dentro del sobreexplotado entorno de peregrinos en un casco histórico con poco que ver, está torre tiene su encanto y es de las cosas con más encanto que he visto en la ciudad. El paseo merece la pena y el esfuerzo para conseguir la foto, también. Yo os recomiendo visitarla.
El ayuntamiento debería darle la importancia que merece y aumentar el glamour de la visita. Sarria es pequeña, acércate a la torre que te va a gustar. Recomendable.

The called Sarria Castle only has a battered tower in a threshing floor full of brambles that the city council has decided to ignore.
Although these ruins have very low ratings for obvious reasons, I want to revalue them within the urban ensemble of Sarria.
These ruins are what ruins should be. Rough and neglected terrain and the fairly intact remains of an ancient tower. Both the construction and the baroque climb you have to do by climbing a wall to take a picture have charm.
And, honestly, within the overexploited environment of pilgrims in a historic district with little to see, this tower is a thing and is one of the most charming places I have seen in the city. The walk is worth it, and the effort to get the picture is too. I recommend visiting it.
The city council should give it the importance it deserves and increase the glamour of the visit. Sarria is small, come closer to the tower, you will like...
