    Montbarbat was one of the great Iberian towns in the area. Located in a strategic place at the top of the hill and protected by a wall reinforced with at least two towers, this town controlled two of the most important communication routes in the country.

    ### Iberian settlement of Montbarbat

    What today seem like a few lost walls in the forest was, more than **2,300 years ago, a genuine Iberian fortified settlement** of about 5,700 m², protected by walls and towers, with streets, dwellings, warehouses, and work areas.

    Its inhabitants probably belonged to the world of the **Indigetes or Indiketes**, and Montbarbat was right on a border area with the territory of the **Laietanos**, who occupied a large part of Maresme. And here lies one of the keys to this place.
