Sant Cugat del Vallès

Sant Cugat del Vallès extends across 48.23 square kilometers at an elevation of 124 meters, featuring residential neighborhoods of Valldoreix, La Floresta, and Mira-sol.

The area transformed from an ancient Roman settlement called Castrum Octavianum into a medieval monastery site, later developing into a contemporary urban center.

The municipality maintains a collection of Gothic architecture, traditional Catalan festivals, and regular cultural events that represent regional heritage throughout the year.

Located 25 kilometers from Barcelona, the town connects to major urban centers through direct train services and provides extensive educational facilities.

The municipality houses Spain's first textile art museum at Cal Quitèria and contains a medieval monastery with one of Europe's largest Romanesque cloisters.
