Olot
Com a Olot enlloc is a local saying which means 'there's no place like
Olot'. This saying certainly rings true of this charming, exuberant town.
Olot is the hometown of several illustrious artists like Ramon Amadeu, Josep
Clarà and Rosa Serra to name but a few. In fact, sculpture, ceramics, music
and fine art seem to be the 'raison d'etre' of Olot.
Olot was largely destroyed by an earthquake in the 14th century but managed
to regain its lost charm.
Among its historical buildings are the Parish church of Sant Steve that dates
back to the 18th century and the sanctuary of Mare de Déu Del Tura. Modernist
artworks that are housed at the regional museum are well worth a visit.
The Claustres Del Carme or Carmelite cloisters are the epitome of Renaissance
architecture and also of noteworthy praise.
Visitors to Olot can take a trip to the La Garrotxa volcanic zone not far from
the town. Extending over an area of more than 11,000 hectares, this vast nature
reserve contains quite a few active volcanoes.
