Girona


Welcome to Girona!

Girona is a town in Catalonia, first inhabited over 2,000 years ago. Girona has a small, attractive medieval Jewish quarter and is often overlooked by budget fliers arriving at Girona-"Barcelona" airport. Girona makes an excellent stop-off as part of a tour of Catalonia or escape from the noise and speed of Barcelona or as a long weekend getaway with one of those budget airlines.

Girona is a city in northern Catalonia, at the confluence of the Ter, Onyar, Galligants, and Güell rivers. The city had an official population of 103,369 in 2020. Girona is the capital of the province of the same name and also capital of the comarca of the Gironès and the vegueria of Girona. Since much of the old quarter of this ancient city has been preserved, Girona is a popular destination for tourists, and film productions have used it as a filming location (Game of Thrones). The city is located 99 km (62 mi) northeast of Barcelona City.
