Esplugues de Llobregat is a municipality of the Barcelona metropolitan area. Formerly in the Barcelonès, since 1990 it has been part of the comarca of Baix Llobregat. During recent decades, Esplugues has evolved from a predominantly industrial town to a more diverse service area while still preserving its cultural and historical identity.
Esplugues de Llobregat is known for its hitoric quarter, one of the oldest urban areas in the Baix Llobregat comarca. The Carrer de Montserrat runs through the architectural complex created by sculptor Xavier Corberó between 1968 and 2017. The Can Cortada manor house was the residence of Rafael d'Amat i de Cortada, Baron of Maldà, author of Calaix de Sastre, an important work of late 18th-century Catalan literature. The municipality also contains several parks and green spaces, including Parc de la Solidaritat, Parc dels Torrents and Parc de Can Vidalet. Sant Pere Màrtir, located within Collserola range, overlooks the municipality and the surrounding area.
The German School of Barcelona, La Miranda, the Highlands School and the American School of Barcelona are located in town and attract wealthy expatriate families. Due to its proximity to the Camp Nou stadium, many famous people reside in Esplugues, including the footballers Gerard Piqué, Andrés Iniesta, Lamine Yamal, and Dani Alves, the motorcycle racer Sete Gibernau, and the former World Number 1 tennis player Arantxa Sánchez.
