Mataró is the capital and largest city of the comarca of the Maresme, in the province of Barcelona, Catalonia Autonomous Community, Spain. It is located on the Costa del Maresme, to the south of Costa Brava, between Cabrera de Mar and Sant Andreu de Llavaneres, to the north-east of Barcelona. As of 2010, it had a population of c. 122,932 inhabitants.

Mataró dates back to Roman times when it was a village known as “Iluro” or “Illuro”. The ruins of a first century BC Roman bath house (known locally as the Torre Llauder) were recently discovered and can be visited. The coastal N-II highway follows the same path as the original Roman road.

Mataró was declared a city by royal decree, even though at the time (nineteenth century) the population fell short of the requirement for city status.

The first railway in peninsular Spain was the Mataró – Barcelona (opened on 28 October 1848), led by the Catalan businessman and Mataró native Miquel Biada. This line now forms part of the RENFE R1 suburban service between L’Hospitalet de Llobregat and Maçanet-Massanes. Mataró is also connected with Barcelona and Girona by the C-32 autopista (freeway) and with Granollers by the C-60 autopista.

Vic is the capital of the comarca of Osona, in the Barcelona Province, Catalonia, Spain. Vic’s location, only 69 km far from Barcelona and 60 km from Girona, has made it one of the most important towns in central Catalonia.

Vic is of ancient origin. Vic, in past times, was called Ausa by the Romans. Iberian coins bearing this name have been found there. The Visigoths called it Ausona.

During the 8th and 9th centuries, Vic sat in the Spanish Marches that separated Frankish and Islamic forces. It was destroyed in 788 during a Muslim incursion. Afterwards only one quarter was rebuilt, which was called Vicus Ausonensis (vicus is Latin for city borough), from which the name Vic was derived. It was repopulated by Wilfred the Hairy in 878 who gained control over the high part of the city and gave up the lowest part to the bishop to construct the episcopal see. From then on, the city was ruled by the count of Barcelona and by the bishop of Vic.

At a council in Toulouges in 1027, the bishop of Vic established the first Peace and Truce of God that helped reduce private warfare.

During the 18th century the city was the first focus of the rebellion against the centralist policy of King Philip V of Spain. The conflict became the War of the Spanish Succession, which resulted in Catalonia losing its freedom as a nation.

In the early 20th century Vic had 9500 inhabitants, and in 1992 it hosted Roller Hockey events of the Barcelona 1992 Summer Olympics.

Alghero is a town of about 44,000 inhabitants in Italy. It lies in the province of Sassari in northwestern Sardinia, next to the sea.

The area of today’s Alghero has been settled since pre-historic times. The so-called Ozieri culture was present here in the 4th millennium BCE while the Nuraghe civilization was present in the area around 1500 BCE, as traces of Phoenician buildings have been found not far from the city.

Due to its strategic position in the Mediterranean Sea, Alghero was built around a fortified port, founded around 1102 by the Genoese Doria family. The Doria ruled it for centuries, apart from a brief period under the rule of Pisa (1283–1284). In 1353 it was captured by the Aragonese under Bernardo de Cabrera, and could later grow thanks to the arrival of Catalan colonists. In the early 16th century Alghero received the status of King’s City (ciutat de l’Alguer) and developed economically.

On September 11, Catalonia commemorates the 1714 Siege of Barcelona defeat during the War of the Spanish Succession. As a punishment for their support to the claim of Habsburg Archduke Charles to the throne of Spain, institutions and rights of the territories of the Crown of Aragon were abolished by the victorious Bourbon monarchy in line with the political evolution occurring in other parts of Europe at the same time.
In 1980, the restored Generalitat de Catalunya (autonomous Government of Catalonia) proclaimed the 11th of September as the Catalan National Day (Catalan: La Diada Nacional de Catalunya; Eastern Catalan: [ɫə ðiˈaðə nəsiuˈnaɫ də kətəˈɫuɲə], Western Catalan: [la ðiˈaða nasioˈnaɫ de kataˈluɲa]).

Organizations and political parties traditionally lay floral offerings at the monuments of Rafael Casanova and General Moragues for their fight against the Bourbon army. Catalan nationalists also meet at the Fossar de les Moreres, where they pay homage to the defenders of city who died during the siege and were buried there. Throughout the day, there are political demonstrations, concerts and celebration events. Many citizens wave senyeres and estelades.

Ripoll is the capital of the comarca of Ripollès, in the province of Girona, Catalonia, Spain. It is located on confluence of the Ter River and its tributary Freser, next to the Pyrenees near the French border. The population was 11,057 in 2009.

The first traces of humans inhabiting the area date from the Bronze Age and can be seen in form of dolmens such as those found in El Sot de Dones Mortes or in Pardinella. This area was later used by peoples from the Atlantic culture to store bronze weapons and as a passway from the Catalan Central Depression to the Pyrenees. The area also has tombs from the late Roman occupation age and some belonging to the Visigoths.

It has a famous Benedictine monastery built in the Romanesque style, Santa Maria de Ripoll, founded by the count Wilfred the Hairy in 879. The count used it as a centre to repopulate the region after conquering it. In the High Middle Ages, its castle, the Castle of Saguardia, located in the county of Les Llosses was ruled by the Saguàrdia family, of which Ponç de la Guàrdia was a famous troubadour.

El Castillo de Tamarit, de estilo románico, está situado sobre un promontorio a orillas del mar Mediterráneo. Está rodeado del antiguo núcleo medieval de Tamarit, que formaba una pequeña aldea en torno al castillo del que queda muy poco. La muralla se abría por cuatro puertas, de las cuales se conservan dos, la de la Mora y la de la Cruz.

La construcción del castillo data del siglo XI y pertenecía al condado de Barcelona y fue transferido a la saga de los Claramunt, que mantuvo hasta el siglo XIII. En el siglo XIV, época en la que se construyó la muralla, pasó a manos del arzobispado de Tarragona, que conservó hasta el siglo XIX, aunque en el siglo XVII compartir el señorío con la familia Montserrat, cuando en 1681 Carlos II concede a Francesc de Montserrat el título de primer marqués de Tamarit. Fue gobernador de Tarragona, señor de Montoliu y de la baronía de Altafulla. En esta época se reconstruyó la muralla y se construyó la torre principal logrando la estructura actual.

En 1916, el arzobispo de Tarragona vendió el lugar al magnate norteamericano Charles Deering, que hizo una restauración de tipo romántico a cargo de Ramon Casas y Joan Ruiz. Se conservan elementos románicos y góticos. Actualmente es propiedad de la Sociedad Betren.

Actualmente en su interior se ubica un restaurante donde se celebran celebraciones (www.castillodetamarit.com).

Se puede acceder a él en coche mediante la N-340, o con la Línea 9 del autobús urbano de Tarragona, que os dejará a pocos metros del Castillo y Cala Jobera, conocida popularmente también Cala del Castillo, donde se pueden ver las vistas que os he plasmado en las fotografías.

El Castillo de Tamarit junto al Castillo del pueblo pedáneo de Ferrán, son las dos únicas fortificaciones que se conservan en pleno estado de conservación del municipio de Tarragona.

Algún día me escaparé al Castillo de Ferrán para mostraros imágenes de él, ya que también vale mucho la pena.

Cala Jobera - Castell de Tamarit. El castell de Tamarit (s.XI), d’estil romànic, està situat sobre un promontori a la vora de la mar Mediterrània al terme municipal de Tarragona. Està envoltat de l’antic nucli medieval de Tamarit, que formava un petit llogaret al voltant del castell del que en resta ben poca cosa.

Con esta cámara hice gran parte de las fotos del 2007, y parte del 2008, como fueron mi viaje a París, Dublin, y algunos más.
La foto pertenece al río Ebro al paso por Tortosa, un día que pase allí y que recuerdo con cierto cariño. Casi 4 años después veo la foto y en parte me entristece, no por la foto en sí, que aunque no es que sea una gran foto, tampoco habría que calificarla como horrorosa, hasta el extremo de llorar, sino por otras cosas que no vienen al caso.

Amposta Bridge black and white, but you can always see in color

Xàtiva

El Pont Penjant de Amposta es un diseño de José Eugenio Ribera. Empezó a construirse en 1915, y se terminó el 1921. En su momento fue el segundo puente colgante del mundo que se construyó con el sistema de hormigón armado, tras el puente de Brooklyn de Nueva York, en el cual se inspiró para su construcción. El puente hace 24 metros de altura y su longitud total es de 134 m. Está caracterizado por los dos pilares de piedra en forma de arco de triunfo, de estilo neoclásico alemán en cada orilla del río, y por su estructura metálica sostenida por cables. Durante la guerra civil el puente sufrió dos ataques por parte de la aviación Legionaria italiana que formaba parte del ejército del general Franco, el último fue el 10 de marzo de 1938. Este fue definitivo, ya que se desprendió la totalidad de su estructura, por el efecto de las bombas incendiarias. Fue reinaugurado en 1947.
