The legend of the Barranc de l’Encantà
Segons el conte relata,
i la veritat pot ser
una senyora molt guapa
li va eixir a un llenyater.
Li ensenyà un collar de plata
amb un diamant i un robí,
«Què és el que vols, la joia?
O m’estimes més a mí?»
Va contestar que la joia.
«Sempre seràs desgraciat!
En aquella penya alta
tinc un palau encantat.
Ja no podràs ser ditxòs;
si m’hagueres volgut a mí,
la fortuna que hi ha allí
haguera sigut p’als dos».

A bit of our history
There are many archaeological finds that demonstrate a human presence in Planes de la Baronía since Prehistory. In the first place, the Cave of En Pardo stands out, with remains that show a human presence between the Upper Paleolithic and full Iberianism. Those of the Cueva del Barranco de la Encantada are from the Epipaleolithic, while those of the Peña Roja de Catamarruch can already be located in the Neolithic.
