Location: L'Ametlla del Vallès, Catalonia
L'Ametlla del Vallès is a municipality in the comarca of Vallès Oriental, located south of the Cingles de Bertí (Pre-Coastal Range). Its location gives it two types of landscape: the Vallès plain, predominantly agricultural, and another more mountainous one. The main urban center lies between both landforms, enjoying a gentle slope. Its history dates back to the year 903, when the municipality’s name first appears associated with the daughter of Count Guifré, to whom it belonged. However, it was not until 1843 that the first town council was formed. Population growth became especially notable between 1970 and 2004, when the number of inhabitants multiplied by 6, reaching the more than 8,000 who live there today. Examples of the comarca’s agricultural past can be found in the farmhouses of Ca l'Arenys, Can Carlons, Can Divino, Can Draper, Can Fàbregues del Bosque, Can Guineu, etc... We can also find architectural and religious heritage, such as the parish church of Sant Genís de l'Ametlla, built in 906. The Modernista imprint, the result of the momentum at the beginning of the 20th century, is reflected in several buildings, among which the town hall building (1912), Cal Barber, Dr. Balsa’s café (1906), and Can Millet (a farmhouse originally from the 14th–17th centuries) stand out.
