Castelldefels Castle (Spanish: Castillo de Castelldefels; Catalan: Castell de Fels) is a frontier fortress in the town of Castelldefels, near Barcelona in Spain, that was built to defend the frontier of the Carolingian Empire against neighbouring Muslim territories, particularly the Caliphate of Córdoba. The fortress was first recorded in the 10th century, as was the former parish church of St. Mary, contained within its outer wall.The castle occupies a hilltop to the northeast of the modern town centre and the castle complex includes the castle keep, a church, associated outbuildings, and a cemetery, all contained within a curtain wall. The hill was first occupied in ancient times and archaeologists have excavated remains of a Laietani settlement dating from the 3rd to the 1st century BC, and a Roman villa dating from the 1st to the 6th century AD. The castle was first recorded in AD 967, and by the 14th century a fortified house existed with a strong curtain wall. The church was also fortified in the 14th century. The castle as it stands today was largely built in the 16th century as a response to the expansion of the Ottoman Empire. The castle had largely fallen into ruin by the second half of the 19th century, although the church continued in use as the local parish church. In 1893 a notorious murder took place in the rectory when a young baker broke in and murdered the parish priest and his niece. The murderer was soon caught, and was executed outside the castle walls in 1895. Soon afterwards the castle was purchased by a wealthy Barcelonan banker, who refurbished it and added decorative crenellations throughout. In the early 20th century the parish church was moved to its current location and the castle church was refurbished as a family chapel. The castle again achieved notoriety during the Spanish Civil War when the International Brigades used it as a disciplinary prison camp, with resulting executions and torture.

The Barcelona School of Agri-Food and Biosystems Engineering (EEABB) is a university center founded in 1912. EEABB is nowadays an engineering school of the UPC-BarcelonaTech offering bachelor's and master's degrees in the field of Biosystems engineering. In 1911 the President of the Provincial Council of Barcelona, the great patrician Enric Prat de la Riba, promoted the creation of the College of Agriculture of Barcelona and on July 11 of that year approved the corresponding order. On October 25, the first board of the school was established and Mr. Manuel Raventos and Domenech was designed as first director of the School. The ESAB settled into a new factory building at Can Batllo (now the site of the Industrial School of Barcelona) which has 10 hectares of experimental fields in the land around him. 1912-1913 was the first academic year with seven students admitted. The school had a dual purpose: firstly, to train farmers in a good scientific practice. Secondly, to become a research center helping to solve the problems faced by the national agriculture. In 2020 changed its name from ESAB to EEABB.At the moment, EEABB organizes and participates in several bachelor's and master's degrees. Bachelor's degrees: Agricultural Engineering. Modern agriculture, efficient and technologically advanced based on respect for the environment and animal welfare . Agricultural Environmental and Landscape Engineering. Landscape and environmental management of natural resources and green spaces for a better world. Food Engineering. Food industry, food and beverage processing, control and food safety, probiotics, foods high value, ... Biosystems Engineering. Biotechnology applied to food and bioprocesses industry, waste management and environment. Culinary and Gastronomic Sciences. Science and technology applied to good food. Master's degrees: Master's degree in Agricultural Engineering: Graduates of the master’s degree in Agricultural Engineering have been trained to work in management, design, planning and technological innovation in rural, agricultural and agri-food settings, with a view to improving production, use, industrial processing and the defence and conservation of the environment, and reconciling productivity, quality, economics and development. KET 4 Food + Bio. Enabling technologies (robotics, nanotechnology, photonics, ...) applied to the food and bioprocesses industry. Aquaculture. Aquaculture techniques studied from multidisciplinary management and management of associated industries. Master's degree in Landscape Architecture (MBLandArch). The aim of the master’s degree in Landscape Architecture (MBLandArch) is to provide an up-to-date response to current landscaping problems and to equip graduates with skills in landscape analysis, planning, design and management, while including the new challenges of adopting EU directives, laws and standards that refer either directly or indirectly to the landscape..
