Banyoles: A legendary lake and town
Banyoles and its lake, since ancient times, have been a source of inspiration for the creation of a multitude of legends and stories transmitted first by oral tradition and then collected by writers and folklorists.
Legends place events in specific places.
Through an itinerary that starts from the 10 most popular stories that are part of the collective imagination of our people and that have endured thanks to our ancestors, we invite you to discover different spaces and historical buildings in the Old Quarter of the city, to enjoy the lake and its lake basin.
The Legendary Itinerary begins at the lake, the most significant element of our city. It was formed thousands of years ago and there are several legends that explain its origin. They also talk about the monster that lives at the bottom of its waters or the water women or aloges that live in the baumes of the Estunes.
And with the charm of the legends of the Lake, we will move towards the historic center to discover more fantastic stories that allow us to know other unique heritage elements of the city.
