thumb|300px|right|The Bellaterra train station. thumb|300px|right|UAB campus in Bellaterra. Bellaterra () is a decentralized municipal entity of Cerdanyola del Vallès, in the metropolitan area of Barcelona (Catalonia, Spain). It is best known for being the location of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB).
The urbanisation of the neighbourhood started in 1929 when a pharmacist, Bartomeu, leased land from his father-in-law and built the Bellaterra railway station on the Barcelona–Vallès Line (then operated by the Ferrocarrils de Catalunya or FCC; now by the FGC).
