Alt Penedès

Alt Penedès lies at the heart of the Penedès Protected Designation of Origin wine-producing region. The county is home to many wineries that can be visited all year round, such as those in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia - considered the capital of cava production - and Vilafranca de Penedès, which is the county town and home to a museum dedicated to wine-making.

One of its most notable municipalities is Gelida, known not only for its forests and beautiful natural landscapes, but also for the preservation of ancient remains from the Megalithic, Iberian and Roman eras. The surrounding area is home to examples of Modernist architecture, which can be explored via educational routes and guided activities.
