| Cardona is a town ìn Catalonia, Spain, in the province of Barcelona. Cardona is a popular tourist town because near the town is an extensive deposit of rock salt. The salt forms a mountain mass called Muntanya de Sal covered by a thick bed of a reddish-brown clay, and apparently resting on a yellowish-grey sandstone. It is generally more or less translucent, and large masses of it are quite transparent. The hill has been worked like a mine since Roman times; pieces cut from it have been carved by artists in Cardona into images, crucifixes and many articles of an ornamental kind. |
