Carrer Sant Joan

It is probably the first town centre in Monistrol. The old wall is now the last of the houses that overlook the Torrent de la Canaleta. The houses stand out from this street. The most notorious is Cal Cavaller. This house has been built from the 16th to the 19th century and is therefore a compendium of architectural styles. Cal Cavaller was the house of the Riusec, agricultural owners of weight in the economic and social life of the population until the middle of the 17th century, when they connect with the family of the Olzina, prominent members of the Consell de Cent and the Generalitat.
