Urban route taking in the key landmarks of the city’s seafaring district, giving you the chance to discover the history of a fishing town that had to combat the terror wrought by pirates and kidnappers, that had to overcome fishing tragedies such as the so-called Any dels Negats (Year of the Drowned, 1886) —when many fishermen were lost at sea in a storm— and that has become one of the most important ports on the Catalan coast. This route around the seafaring district, including the port itself and the old houses in which fishermen and their families lived, will help you understand the Vilanova of today by shedding light on its past.
