Cal Barons
Terraced house structured on a ground floor and two upper storeys. The most striking feature is the brick facing, with raised relief around all openings, creating a lively and distinctive surface texture. On the ground floor, there is a commercial premises with two large entrances, each framed by segmental arches. The residential entrance features a flat arch, above which the brickwork forms triangular patterns. On the upper floors, there are three openings per level—two of them with balconies featuring wrought-iron railingsinspired by flowing vegetal motifs. The building is crowned by a decorative frieze reminiscent of Romanesque sawtooth patterns. On the pear-shaped corbel centered beneath the first-floor balcony, the date 1905 is inscribed.1905

Berguedà Casino
Ignasi M. Colomer i Oms, Roc Cot i Cot
Building located on the corner of a steep street that includes a cinema in one wing and a café and restaurant in the other. The façade has a masonry-style stone plinth and the upper part is covered with decorative motifs in the upper areas and the sills of the openings with tiles, with some elements in brick. The roof is made of Arabic tile. It is structured on a single floor and the most characteristic element is perhaps the shape of the openings, false pointed arches made by approximating courses. Roc Cot started the project and Ignasi Colomer continued it. It dates from 1913 and different architects participated. The first project was by the master builder Francesc Joan Canal (1902), later remodelled by the architect Roc Cot i Cot and definitively finished by the architect Ignasi M. Colomer in 1913. The building was refurbished in 1940 and again in 1955 when it was converted into a cinema. The current staircase, the entrance hall which is used as an exhibition room and the remodelling of the auditorium which removed the balconies and the interior decoration are all part of these refurbishments.1913

Cal de Martín
The house has a ground floor and three upper floors with façades facing the Ronda de Queralt and the Passeig de Les Estaselles. The house corresponds to an early 20th century construction, parallel to the construction of the casino next door. On the ground floor, it combines stone with the red brick of the windows and the plastering of the different parts. A single-storey turreted structure on one side with battlements stands out. The most interesting part of the façade is the arrangement of the openings and their modulation, as well as the glazed tribune. This façade contrasts sharply with the rear façade, where the layout of the floors is clearly visible, with balconies on each floor. The house is the work of the architect Ignasi M. Colomer and was built in 1913. It is owned by the Martín family, who since the end of the 18th century have held the title of lords and noble coat of arms as direct descendants of the Barons of Balsereny. -
Chapel of the Holy Cave in the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Queralt
The first chapel where the Virgin of Queralt was venerated was the same cave where she was found; hence, at the beginning of the 20th century, given the poor state it was in, it was decided to build a new cave. The initiative was of Father Joan Postius, a missionary of the Heart of Mary and organiser of the Coronation of 1916. Work began in 1916, and in 1920 only the staircase remained. The design of the Holy Cave was the work of Josep Maria Forcada, also a missionary of the Heart of Mary. The chapel is a small oratory attached to the rock of Queralt, with two distinct parts. The lower part, with a series of semicircular arches supported by large pillars of well-worked stone and lined with concrete and cement with several benches, and the upper part of the cave, which has a structure of natural stone from the Queralt mountain range. A series of oculi scattered along the wall and a semicircular entrance enclosed by a grille illuminate the interior.1916

Tomàs Pujol House
The intervention by Emili Porta consisted of remodelling a nineteenth-century terraced house, which had become rather dilapidated. The resulting building features a bare brick façade, vertically framed by a border imitating ashlar masonry. On the ground floor, a large semicircular arch with brick archivolts encloses both the entrance door and a shop window. The first floor has two openings with individual balconies, while the second floor features two openings sharing a continuous balcony. On the third floor, there is a gallery of tripartite round-arched windows, protected by a moulded drip cornice. The balustrades of the balconies are made of twisted iron rods, and the balcony slabs are formed with white and green glazed tiles arranged diagonally, supported by decorative iron brackets.1925

Joan Ramon Selgas House
Building between partitions located in Carrer del Roser. The building consists of a ground floor, two storeys and an attic. Catalan Art Nouveau influences are evident in the composition of the façade, in the construction materials and, especially, in the profusion of decorative elements used (oval window, iron grilles and stained-glass windows). The house was renovated in the early 1930s, when its height was increased and the first floor was raised, with the characteristic tribune protruding from the profile. The crowning of the façade is also noteworthy, with a gable with a mixed composition and portholes. This building is attributed to Alexandre Soler i March, although this attribution is not entirely certain. In 1931, its owner, Joan Ramon Selgas, commissioned Josep Marfà to renovate the house, who respected the original style of the house to a great extent. For some years, the ground floor of the building housed the post office.1931
