    Mountaineering

    The Fittko couple saved the lives of many people persecuted by the Nazi regime by leading them over the Pyrenees to Spain. The memorial for them was inaugurated in January 2001. Unfortunately, there is no further reference to the site, which is located somewhat hidden in the Puig des Mas district, in the town itself. Incidentally, the Chemin Walter Benjamin is not easy to find. Often, there are no further signs at junctions, making a hiking app very useful.

    Not easy to find starting point of the memorial trail in honor of the escape helper Lisa Fittko - who brought many exiles across the border...

    A very beautiful hiking trail with great views and a sad historical background. The trail is well signposted.
