Torroella Vila Vella. La memòria emotiva

In 2007, the Mascort Foundation published its first book Torroella Vila Vella, a project proposed by Jan Baca Pericot (Terrassa, 1934) and Jaume Bassa Pasqual (Torroella de Montgrí, 1932) to Ramon Mascort Amigó (Barcelona, 1930) with the aim of fulfilling one of their dreams.

The result was a compendium of information about the town, a book created from texts and drawings that create a suitable atmosphere to remember our history and thus understand who we are and where we come from. It also wanted to show visitors the essence of our municipality, as authentic as it is attractive, and thus value its geography and architecture, which are witnesses to our traditions and particular way of being.

As its authors say: “Let’s go back sixty years… or seventy… How lucky we were to be born in Torroella and how lucky we were to live those years!”
