A Look Back: Cornellà's History
The story of Cornellà de Llobregat is shaped by three main things. First, it's very close to the big city of Barcelona. Second, it has always been a busy pathway from Barcelona to other places. Third, the Llobregat River runs right by it.
The name Cornellà comes from Roman times. It likely came from "Cornelianus," which was a Roman name. The first time we see Cornellà mentioned in writing was way back in the year 980 AD. Later, in the 1200s, the city became part of Barcelona's land.
