Today it is a Hotel but the heritage complex of Sant Pere del Bosc has more than a thousand years of history. Its origins as a Benedictine monastery date back to 986 after an attack on the Blanes convent. It was then that what we know today as Sant Pere del Bosc was formed, although at that time it was named Sant Pere Salou, a group of buildings around a chapel. It explains the anecdote that Nicolau Font wanted to pave the floor of the hermitage of Sant Pere del Bosc with gold coins. That's why they told him he had to ask permission from the king. If he put the coins face down, when stepping on them, people would step on the face of the king himself. If he put them crosswise, people would step on the country's coat of arms and this was considered a very big offense. Madrid's answer was that he could pave the floor but by putting the coins of gaerell!
Finally, Nicolau Font abandoned the idea.
