Santa Perpètua de Mogoda is a municipality located in the Vallès Occidental region, in the province of Barcelona. It currently has more than 25,000 inhabitants, who reside in the 8 neighborhoods that make up the municipality.

Its history dates back to the Neolithic period, when abundant water and fertile land favored the first human settlements. Since then, Sainte-Perpetua has witnessed transformations and growth over the centuries, and today offers a rich cultural, archaeological, and architectural heritage.

In the heart of the village stands the church, a 12th-century building, around which the town's first streets and farmhouses were formed. Another of the most emblematic buildings is El Vapor, a former 19th-century textile factory, now the headquarters of the Museum of Work and Living Industry (MTIV).

The museum is a space dedicated to the history of labor and industry, where you can discover the evolution of work, from the first objects manufactured by humanity, through the great impact of the Industrial Revolution, to the present day, where the most advanced technologies are increasingly present. The museum combines permanent exhibitions with temporary exhibitions, guided tours, and activities for all audiences, offering a range of opportunities to discover the importance of work in the history of the region.

In addition, the museum has other interesting sites such as the Soldevila Farm, a 20th-century dairy factory and modernist residence, and the 11th-century Romanesque church of Santiga, surrounded by natural landscapes, ideal for family outings.

The heritage of Santa Perpètua also includes other architectural elements such as the Can Taió Castle, the Roman Oven of Campo de Ventura del Oller, the Mogoda Castle and the Mogoda Ice Well, among other monuments that attest to the historical wealth of the area.

Furthermore, the municipality has been awarded the Vilesfloridas designation for its distinctive natural and scenic beauty. Central Park is a prime example, as it is one of the largest public spaces in the region, connecting nature and the city. This park offers areas for leisure, relaxation, and biodiversity, highlighting its naturalized irrigation pond, which has become a unique habitat for wildlife and a draw for visitors.

Santa Perpètua de Mogoda has not only grown in population but also in quality. This growth has been possible thanks to the new citizens who have brought new ideas and realities, enriching a municipality with more than 10,000 years of history.
