Solivella (Catalan pronunciation: [suliˈveʎa]) is a municipality in the comarca of the Conca de Barberà in Catalonia, Spain.
Mentioned for the first time in a document from 1058, it rose around a castle, of which today only ruins remain. It was a possession of the Monastery of Santes Creus, and in 1393 it went to the Catalan crown.
The medieval Sanctuary of Tallat is located nearby, between Solivella and Belltall.
