Sent by Marion from Perpignan, France.
The Castillet (locally [kəstiˈʎet] or Castellet in Standard Catalan, meaning small castle) is an ancient fortification and city gate located in Perpignan (Pyrénées-Orientales, France). Today, this monument, a strong symbol of the city, has become a museum: Museu Català de les Arts i Tradicions Populars (Catalan Museum of Popular Arts and Traditions) (read further).
