a town of Spain, in Catalonia; seated on the coast of the Mediterranean, 15 miles north-east of Barcelona, and 35 south-west of Giroune. It is a small town, but industrious and well peopled; and the environs abound in vineyards, which produce wine much famed for its flavour. It likewise contains several manufactories, and is considered as one of the richest and most active towns in Catalonia. E. Long. 2. 35. N. Lat. 41. 32.
