Cabrera de Mar

Cabrera de Mar (Catalan pronunciation: [kǝˈβɾeɾǝ ðǝ ˈmaɾ]) is a municipality of the comarca of Maresme in Catalonia, Spain.

It is located next to the Català mediterranean coast, between the municipalities of

Vilassar de Mar and Mataró, although the urban centre is at about 2.5 kilometres
Cabrera de Mar
(1.6 mi) inland, in a small valley between the hills of Burriac (where the remains of the Municipality
Sant Vicenç de Burriac castle are located) and Montcabrer. Apart from the two
mentioned, Cabrera de Mar also borders with the municipalities of Cabrils and
Argentona.

Population in Cabrera de Mar is quite scattered in several nucleus of different

origins. The casc antic (main centre), Agell (also known as Santa Elena d'Agell), Sant
Joan de Munt and Mas Terrillo are located inland, whereas Pla de l'Avellà, Costamar
and Bonamar are located next to the coast.

The town centre has buildings in a wide range of styles: neoclassical, modernista,
noucentista and simply eclectic.

Like almost all municipalities of Maresme, Cabrera de Mar has been historically very
well connected with the rest of the comarca and with Barcelona thanks to old Camí
Ral (Royal Way) (actual N-II main road) and railroad (Barcelona-Mataró railroad route
(1848) was the first to be constructed in all the Iberian Peninsula). Communications
have been enhanced in recent years with the construction (1969) of the C-32's Coat of arms

Barcelona-Mataró section, also the first autopista (highway) to be constructed in all

the Iberian Peninsula.
