Gandesa ((:ɡənˈdɛzə), ) is the capital of the ''comarca'' of Terra Alta, in the province of Tarragona, Catalonia, Spain. ==History== In the place known as ''Coll del Moro'' there is an ancient Iberian archaeological site belonging to the Ilercavones tribe that lived in this area before Roman times. Gandesa has a church with unusual and interesting sculptures on the Romanesque porch.〔(Gandesa – A Church in New Catalonia )〕 The old winery of Gandesa, also known in Catalonia as one of the Wine Cathedrals, is from Modernisme and Noucentisme style and was designed by the architect Cèsar Martinell in 1919. Gandesa was at the center of fighting during the Battle of the Ebro in the Spanish Civil War. In the Summer of 1938 Republican forces crossed the Ebro in an attempt to throw back the Nationalist armies of General Franco. This is mentioned in the ballad "Jamie Foyers" and ''Si me quieres escribir'', also known as ''El Frente de Gandesa''.〔(Si me quieres escribir - Ya sabes mi paradero - El Frente de Gandesa - Los emboscados )〕 Now there is a museum devoted to the Battle of the Ebro in Gandesa.〔(Museo de Gandesa - CEBE - Centre d'Estudis de la batalla de l'Ebre )〕 On December 23, 1948 an Iberia Airlines Douglas DC-3 crashed in bad weather near Gandesa killing all 27 occupants. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gandesa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
