1920 Catalonia City Hall Girona Parking Square Vehicles Santiago Ortega

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this postcard from the 1920s, showcasing a snapshot of Vi Square in Girona. The image transports us to an era when public vehicles lined the square, creating a bustling scene in front of the majestic town hall. The charm of this historical photograph lies not only in its monochromatic tones but also in the details it captures. Countless cars, their sleek designs representing early 20th-century transportation, fill every available parking space. Each vehicle tells a story, hinting at the lives and journeys that unfolded within them. Girona's rich history is palpable as we gaze upon this horizontal print. The city hall stands tall and proud, serving as both a symbol of civic pride and a witness to countless events throughout Catalonia's past. This remarkable postcard has been preserved for decades within a private collection belonging to Santiago Ortega—an individual dedicated to safeguarding our cultural heritage. Its discovery offers us an invaluable glimpse into Spain's bygone days. As we admire this piece of history, let us appreciate how far we have come while cherishing the memories captured within these faded yet evocative images.
