Monestir de Sant Llorenç del Munt

Sant Llorenç del Munt is a Benedictine monastery in Matadepera, Vallès Occidental, Catalonia, Spain.

In 1014, the word monastery appeared in a document associated with Count Ramon Borrell and his wife regarding a land swap with the abbey of San Llorenç.

On March 30, 1809, the troops of Napoleon's army destroyed what was left of the monastery, even desecrating the abbots' graves.

The church has three naves and a bell tower raised with local stones, characterized as being of modest size, redness and unpolished.
