Cardona |
Cardona has a citadel, the Castle of Cardona, which is set on a hill and the 14th-century Romanesque Church of St. Vincenç. It is celebrated for the deposit of rock salt in its vicinity. The salt forms a mountain mass (called Muntanya de Sal) covered by a bed of a reddish-brown clay and apparently resting on a yellowish-grey sandstone. It is more or less translucent and large masses of it are quite transparent. The hill has been worked like a mine since Roman times and pieces cut from it have been carved by artists in Cardona into images, crucifixes and ornaments.
