The origins of the village date back to medieval times, and like many towns in the Pyrénées-Orientales, Saint-Laurent-de-Cerdans has historically been influenced by French and Catalan cultures. The Vallespir region has historically been a place of passage and trade between both sides of the border.
Throughout the 19th century, the village experienced a boom due to its traditional industries, especially the manufacture of espardenyes (espadrilles) and cotton fabrics. These industries played an important role in the growth of the village and its regional recognition.

The Church of San Lorenzo is a construction dating back to medieval times, and like many churches in the region, it has been modified and restored over the centuries. It is a reflection of the Romanesque and later Baroque influence, with several renovations carried out to maintain its structure and functionality.
San Lorenzo is the patron saint of the town, which gives him a central role in the religious life of the community. The feast of San Lorenzo, celebrated on August 10, is one of the most important events in the town.
