Carme (Catalan pronunciation: [ˈkaɾmə]) is a municipality in the comarca of the Anoia in Catalonia, Spain. The town is in the middle of a valley, which is surrounded by the Orpinell range (751 m.) and the other by the Collbàs range (544 m.). The village is at the bottom of the valley and is surrounded by forests. The capital of the region of Anoia, Igualada, is just ten kilometers from the village, while other municipalities like La Pobla de Claramunt or Capellades are about five kilometers from the village.
