The caves of l'Espluga de Francolí are a set of natural cavities formed in the conglomerate rock. Speleological explorations began in 1956, and so far 3,600 meters of galleries have been explored, making them one of the longest caves in the world. The archaeological findings inside show that they have been occupied since the Paleolithic: the last discovery, in 2019, was a Paleolithic sanctuary made up of more than 300 engravings, some of them more than 36,000 years old. The visits are guided and can be booked from https://covesdelespluga.info/

Municipality of the province of Tarragona, in the region of Conca de Barberà. The origin of the town is in the castle that Ponç de Cervera built on top of a nearby mountain in the 11th century. In the middle of the 13th century, the castle became dependent on the monastery of Poblet and the Templars, and in the lower part the encomienda of the Espluga de Francolí was established, under the jurisdiction of the hospital order. In the year 1312, the year of the extinction of the Order of the Temple, the Espluga de Francolí acquires the full señorío. Among the cultural heritage stands out the old hospital of the Order of San Juan, which currently houses the Mosén Ramón Muntanyola library, the Museo de la Vida Rural, the modernist cooperative winery Celler Cooperatiu, the work of Pere Domènech i Roura, or the Fassina Balanyà, former alcohol factory, today converted into one of the twenty-five industrial museums of the System of the National Museum of Science and Technology of Catalonia.

There is news of this fountain as early as 1151, but in its current form it dates from 1852, although the original project was never completed. The stone used in its construction came from an old obelisk that was on the wall of the old road from Poblet to Vimbodí. The number of pipes was also increased from the original 11 to the current 17 (one pipe for each letter of the town where it is located). Originally the pipes were made of bronze, but they were stolen in 1954 and replaced by iron ones.
