Gósol

Gósol is a municipality located northwest of the Berguedà, touching the Alt Urgell and belongs to the province of Lleida. Gósol is formed by different entities: the old term of Castellfraumir, Bonner, Moripol and Vilacireres, depopulated and Sorrentino is located a couple of miles Gósol. It is the gateway to Pedraforca Magic Mountain and is surrounded by the Sierra del Cadi, which stands on the Coll de Josa and belongs to the Natural Park Moixeró.

It is therefore evident that the natural surroundings Gósol is wonderful and just found this place and it's an experience, but the magnitude of Gósol not end with the natural surroundings and the tranquility that prevails there. In this corner nestled amid mountains refuge also one of the great artists known around the world: Picasso. Here he spent long periods and stays left an artistic legacy that has allowed today to create a center dedicated to him: Centre Picasso.

In the Centre Picasso you can see different rooms that show the works by the artist during his stay in the population or that are related to the evolution Gósol and suffered his painting, the stages and elements developed from here .

Gósol also has a large cultural heritage among which we highlight the Castle environment among whom are a part of the enclosure that still remains walled, some houses and the church of Santa Maria del Castillo of Gósol. And it is in the religious elements we find a larger number of buildings: the Chapel of the Roses, Santa Margarida, the church of Sant Francesc de Sorrentino, among others.

As we said, the natural setting of Gósol is amazing and are a sign very clear, not only Pedraforca, which is one of the emblems of the population but also the Sierra de Ensija, the Pont Cabradís or Source Terrers.

Also noteworthy is the Gósol Festival which falls on August 15 and during which Cosses Ball does, it only dances at this time.
