Alt Maresme, Historical subregion in Maresme, Spain

The Alt Maresme encompasses twelve municipalities north of Barcelona, stretching along the Mediterranean coast and extending into the surrounding mountainous areas.

From 1303 to 1833, Alt Maresme belonged to the diocese and county of Girona until it was integrated into the province of Barcelona.

The region maintains numerous traditional farmhouses that represent Catalan rural architecture and agricultural heritage through preserved stone buildings and estates.

The area connects to Barcelona through regular train services and the N-II coastal road, making it accessible for both residents and visitors.

Each municipality in Alt Maresme retains specific judicial arrangements within the Arenys de Mar judicial district while belonging to Girona's healthcare system.
