Castells have over 200 years of history. Their origins date back to the 18th century in Valls (Tarragona), and in 2010 UNESCO inscribed them on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

Castells music is played on the gralla (a traditional Catalan wind instrument) and the timbal (drum). The toc de castells guides each phase of the construction and is an essential part of the performance.
