Collblanc

Little Murcia

Collblanc is the third urban nucleus of L’Hospitalet. In the middle ages, this area was divided geographically by the mountainous area, known as Samontà, which corresponds to the present-day Collblanc; the area of the river’s delta, known as Marina, and, in the middle, the territory of Provençana.
