Discover the city of Girona

The centre of the city of Girona is determined by the layout of the old quarter, which followed the borders of the ancient Roman city.

 

In this area, we find the old Benedictine monastery of Sant Pere de Galligants, the wall-top promenade, opened in 1985, the Sant Feliu church, and the Arab Baths, which date from the 12th century.

 

One of the city's most emblematic points is the recently refurbished Rambla de la Llibertat, a beautiful shop-lined promenade. A good number of the back streets and alleyways of Girona's old quarter run between the Rambla de la Llibertat and Ciutadans street.

      Je vis à Gérone, une ville qui avait été oubliée de tous les géronais pendant des années mais un jour un maire a décidé de «laver son visage» qui était plein de crasse et elle a brillé comme les étoiles du ciel.
