Theatrical performances and parades of a variety of effigies animate the streets of this Catalan town located north of Barcelona. The celebration takes place every year during the week of Corpus Christi, between late May and late June. An extraordinary meeting of the municipal council, the appearance of the Tabal (a large and emblematic festival drum presiding over the festivities) and the Quatre Fuets announce the festivities.
Over the following days numerous celebrations take place, most important of which are the parades, the ceremonial Patum, the children’s Patum and the full Patum. Fenêtre Ouverte sur la Catalogne.

Ara, això si, ens van obrir el cotxe trencant el videre de darrere. Vigileu molt amb el que deixeu. José maría » Hace 9 meses Hola, repito lo mismo...muy apropiada para principiantes pero siempre acompañados de alguien con experiencia. Entorno natural espectacular... Único inconveniente que encontré es que algunos de los apoyos de la parte final están un poco sueltos y se mueven.
La próxima visita pienso llevar alguna cámara oculta para grabar a los indeseables que roban en los coches... Saludos Alberto » Hace 9 meses La hicimos ayer (combinada con la de Cala del Molí). Ah, y el coche estaba entero al regreso. Maria » Hace 10 meses hola! Estaba toda en muy buen estado .. y no nos han robado en el parking!

The territory that now constitutes the autonomous community of Catalonia in Spain was first settled during the Middle Palaeolithic.
Like the rest of the Mediterranean coast of the Iberian Peninsula, it was colonized by Ancient Greeks and Carthaginians and participated in the pre-Roman Iberian culture. As with the rest of Hispania, the area that is now Catalonia was part of the Roman Empire, it then came under Visigothic rule after collapse of the western part of the empire. In 718, the area was occupied by the Moors and became a part of Muslim ruled al-Andalus. The Frankish Empire conquered the area from the Muslims, beginning with the conquest of Roussillon in 760 and ending with the conquest of Barcelona in 801, as part of the creation of a larger buffer zone of Christian counties known as the Marca Hispanica.
The marriage of Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile in 1469 laid the foundations for a unified Crown of Spain. In the years after the civil war life was difficult.
