VIC. CULTURAL CITY

Halfway between the Mediterranean sea and the Pyrenees, the historical city of Vic presents a harmonious arrangement of streets and squares in the old town centre and the growing urban development of the new town. The markets and trade fairs, the consolidation of Vic University and the growth of industrial estates testify to the dynamism of this cosmopolitan city.
Vic is a city rich in contrasts. Tradition and modernity live side-by-side, rural customs persist within an advanced environment and the peace and quiet of a small city is belied by its festive calendar of events.
Vic has a rich cultural heritage, as evidenced by the quality of the city museums, archives and historical buildings and by the many and varied civic, cultural and artistic societies that exist in the city.
