Encyclopedic overview
Arenys de Munt ( Catalan: [əˈɾɛɲz ðə ˈmun], locally [əˈɾɛɲʒ ðə ˈmun]; arenys being Catalan for "sands (of a seasonal creek)", and de munt for "up hill" as opposed to Arenys de Mar, "sands by the sea") is a municipality in the comarca of the Maresme in Catalonia, Spain. It is situated inland from the coast, in the el Corredor range and including the peak of el Montalt (595 m). It retains a textile industry specialised in the production of towels, and is also known for the production of strawberries, cherries and liqueurs. The B-511 road links the town with Arenys de Mar, Vallgorguina and Sant Celoni.
It is also the hometown of actor Daniel Brühl.
