Valls is a city with a strong personality, proud of its traditions, its rich culture and its heritage. It is a welcoming city strongly committed to the traditions and culture of our country.
With an outstanding location which makes Valls one of the engines of the large development areas of Tarragona, the city enjoys a growing economy with an ever expanding business park and good road communications (N-240, AP2 and AP7), and good connections with the "Camp de Tarragona” AVE train station and Reus International Airport.
One of the most typical aspects of the city are the castells (human towers), a tradition that comes within the context of popular expressions. Valls is the cradle of the casteller, and currently has two groups known in Catalan as “colles de xiquets”: the Colla Joves (youth gang) and the Colla Vella (old folks gang), which compete to achieve the best towers.
El Pati. This square is at the centre of the city. In El Pati, there are remains of the castle built at the end of the 12th century.
The Rosal Chapel. Inside the chapel there are two 17th century glazed tile panels commemorating the Battle of Lepanto, which are considered National Cultural Heritage.
The Town Hall. Located in the old Plaza del Blat, the square in which the castellers take place, is the Town Hall building, built between 1593 and 1595.
The archpriest’s church of John the Baptist was built between 1570 and 1583 and is a combination of the Gothic and Renaissance styles.
