Calafell, Coastal municipality in Baix Penedès, Spain

Calafell extends along five kilometers of Mediterranean coastline, featuring golden sand beaches and a historical town center positioned on a hilltop.

The settlement dates back 2500 years with the establishment of a Roman villa, later developing into a strategic point during the Roman occupation of the region.

The Casa Barral Museum, former residence of poet Carlos Barral, holds exhibitions and documents reflecting the literary heritage of the Mediterranean region.

The municipality connects to Barcelona and Tarragona through regular train services, with two airports within 60 kilometers of the town center.

The Iberian Citadel of Calafell presents a reconstructed ancient settlement demonstrating daily life from 2500 years ago through archaeological findings.
