====================
The town of Camprodon, in Catalonia, is a quite touristic spot in the Pyrenees since early XX Century, although this strategic place has seen also a lot of wars and fighting since medieval times and up to the spanish civil war in 1939.
The most famous spot is the medieval bridge built c.1196-1226, and aptly known as the Pont Nou ("New Bridge"; in fact it's quite common to have "new bridges" to be the oldest in some cities, like Paris itself, where the Pont Neuf is the oldest one standing).
