Miralles Castle was converted into the Augustinian monastery Casa de Déu de Miralles in 1414. Gothic paintings have been preserved in the Antic convent de Miralles; the Generalitat de Catalunya highlighted their importance.

Historically, the Les Fonts de Miralles area comprised four springs known by name: Ntra. Senyora de Gràcia, Sant Josep, Santa Rita de Càssia and Sant Nicolau de Tolentí.

For current planning, access to Les Fonts de Miralles should be taken into account: since February 2026, it has been temporarily closed due to a landslide.
