My research tells me it is....

The centuries-old castle and fortress that is now home to Parador Cardona in Catalonia has seen more than its fair share of suffering over the course of Spanish history. Built in 886, making it one of the oldest of Paradores luxury hotels in Spain, the 62,000-square meter building has borne witness to bloody war and brutal conflict, feeding many of the legends and ghost stories associated with the Parador today.

But perhaps the most well-known legend of Parador Cardona is the tragic 11th century love affair between Adalés, the daughter of a viscount and viscountess, and the Moorish jailer of nearby Maldá Castle.
