Discover Viladecans

Those who choose Viladecans can consider cultural history, nature and visitor activities as different focal points for their stay. The sights and activities reveal different sides of the destination.

Cultural history in Viladecans

Ca n’Amat is the main site of the Viladecans Museum. At Ca n’Amat, the permanent exhibition “Viladecans al 1800” displays original furniture from the masia, dating from the 18th century to the beginning of the 20th century. The period covered therefore spans several centuries and offers a tangible way to explore the history of the masia through its furniture.

The Ermita de Santa Maria de Sales offers a different historical perspective. The Romanesque building has been documented since 1141 and stands on the remains of a Roman villa from the 2nd century BC. This makes it possible to explore different periods: the Roman remains beneath the ermita and the furniture from later centuries displayed at Ca n’Amat. If you are interested in history, these two examples can draw your attention to both archaeological traces and historic buildings.

The Viladecans Museum organises free guided tours of historic buildings in the town. Dates are published in the municipal events calendar. If you would like to include a tour in your plans, check the relevant dates there before arranging your stay around it.

Agricultural landscape and coast

The Parc Agrari in the Viladecans area has paths and routes for walking and cycling. This offers a different focus from the museum and architecture: the emphasis is on trails through the agricultural landscape and getting around on foot or by bike. You can consider including the park if you would also like to combine your stay with outdoor activities.

The coast also has its own distinctive landscape. Viladecans beach is 2.4 kilometres long. A coastal pine forest, planted to stabilise the dunes, separates it from the rest of the inland area. The beach, dunes and coastal forest together define this stretch of coast. Playa del Pinar is partially protected by the Natura 2000 network. Playa de la Murtra is accessible to people with reduced mobility; as accessibility conditions can change seasonally, it is advisable to check the latest information before visiting. This allows you to take both the landscape and any accessibility requirements relevant to you into account when choosing an excursion.

Weekend activities and things to do

Casa de las Abejas offers activities every weekend, including experimental workshops and guided visits to the beehive at Mas Ratés. The programme therefore includes both workshops and visits with a guide at the beehive. If you would like to include one of these activities in your travel plans, check the current schedule and booking details in advance, as both may change.

Les Tanques offers family activities with farm animals and ponies. This is a specific option for families who would like to consider animal-related activities when planning their stay. Check before travelling whether a reservation is required.

Viladecans for your hotel search

When choosing your hotel, you can start by deciding which of these aspects of Viladecans matters most for your trip. If historic sites are your main focus, Ca n’Amat, the ermita and the guided tours are relevant topics to consider when planning. For a stay focused on the outdoors, the paths of the Parc Agrari or the coastal landscape can help guide your choice; if you have a particular weekend activity in mind, check its dates and booking details. This will help you tailor your search for a hotel in Viladecans to your reason for travelling and your planned dates.
