Vic was founded as Ausa by the Ausetani in the 2nd century BC and refounded by the Romans as a municipality, retaining remains of the Roman temple in the Plaza de la Catedral. The city experienced its medieval splendor under Bishop Oliba in the 11th century, a driving force behind Catalan Romanesque architecture, and consolidated itself as the regional capital of Osona with a porticoed Plaza Mayor that has hosted the market since medieval times. The old town features guild streets like Calle dels Argenters, the Mèder River that structures the historic center, and corners like Plaza del Canónigo Collell or Plaza de Don Miquel de Clariana. Modernism left its mark on buildings like Casa Comella. In GeoCats, you'll explore these waypoints, solving challenges about Vic's Roman, medieval, and modernist past.
