Sant Joan Despí

Located on the Llobregat plain, on the left of the lower part of the river, Sant Joan Despí (population 29,000) offers a tourist trail born of a desire to show the significant heritage that is the legacy of the man who was municipal architect in the town for twenty years, Josep Maria Jujol.

The town conserves many buildings from the turn of the twentieth century. Construction coincided with the work undertaken in Catalonia by illustrious architects. Modernisme is one of Sant Joan Despí's main attractions.

Sant Joan Despí celebrates its local festival in the third week of June. See the municipal events calendar for other festivities.
