Fígols is a municipality in the comarca of the Berguedà in
Catalonia, Spain. It is situated to the north of Cercs, in the mountains above the Llobregat valley.

The guerrilla leader Ramon Vila Capdevila - last of the Spanish Maquis, who held out from the end of the Spanish Civil War until being killed in 1963 - is buried in Fígols. On 15 July 2000, a plaque was placed at the burial site of Vila which reads
Here lie the remains of Ramon Vila Capdevila. Militant of the CNT and the last of the Catalan anarchist maquis, he was involved in the proclamation of libertarian communism (1932), the civil war (1936-39), and the French Resistance (1939-45) and, for a further 18 years, the fight against Francoism. In memory of him and of all who gave their lives for freedom and the anarchist ideal.

What people eat in Cataluña when they eat well.
Bread, ripe tomato, oil and salt: the base of any Catalan table.
Spring onions charred over flames, January to March, bib on.
Fresh sausage grilled with sautéed beans; hearty and honest.
Egg-yolk custard with a sugar crust caramelised on the spot.
Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.
We haven't confirmed Fígols's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
