About Sitges and its homosexual life
Sitges is a small town 35 km south-western of Barcelona. In the late 19th century Sitges started to turn into a mecca for artists and a center for Modernist and post Art Nouveau architects. During the 1960s (under the conservative dictatorship of Franco) it became a center for the counterculture in Spain.
