Travelling by hire car in Gerona

Gerona has a rich history with occupations by Romans, Moors and others. Of the aforementioned many traces can be found in the surroundings. The Romans built a citadel, which they named Gerunda (see history part of the article). The citadel was taken by the Moors and typical Arabic bath houses, built in 1194, still exist here. Religious buildings have a turbulent history in Gerona; a fine example is the city's cathedral. The former mosque was completely restyled in catholic fashion after the inquisition. Furthermore, Gerona has many interesting museums which include:

• Museum of Jewish History. In the 12th century Gerona had a lively jewish community. The jewish quarter in the city is one of the largest and most beautiful of Europe
• Museum of arts
• Museum of the cathedral

The city walls of Gernoa have been renovated extensively in the last few years but original parts still exist. This is extraordinary, considering the fact that Gerona has been besieged 25 times and occupied 7 times. In addition to the city walls, Gerona has a wide variety of architectural splendour, including:

• the Gothic Sant Feliu church (images), built in the 14th century
• Plaza de la Independencia, a lovely square with many cosy restaurants and bars
