montblanc


Montblanc, a charming town in Catalonia, Spain, is the capital of the Conca de Barberà comarca, nestled within the province of Tarragona. This historic town is not only rich in medieval architecture but also serves as a gateway to the scenic Prades Mountains, a large calcareous mountain massif known for its lush forests and diverse wildlife. The Prades Mountains, recognized as a Site of Community Importance, offer a natural haven for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. Montblanc itself boasts a vibrant history, with evidence of settlements dating back to the Paleolithic era, and later becoming a significant location during the period of Islamic fiefdoms in the region.
