The municipality of Montmeló is located in the Vallès Oriental, just 20 km from Barcelona. It has almost 9,000 inhabitants and is a mainly residential municipality characterized by its very orderly urban growth, with many low-density housing areas, large spaces, and green areas. The municipality has excellent communication, both by public transport (R2 train station and buses) and by road, where we highlight the A7, one of the main communication routes, the C17 (Barcelona-Vic) and the C33. In 1991, the Circuit de Catalunya was inaugurated, built largely within the municipal district of Montmeló, and which has made the name of the town known throughout the world. The municipality preserves an important archaeological heritage, mainly due to the Republican Roman-era sites, among which the Roman villa of Can Massot, in the urban center, and the Can Tacó site on the mountain of the Tres Creus stand out. The latter is declared a National Cultural Asset in the category of archaeological zone.
