            L'Estany de Banyoles, Banyoles, Girona.

L'Estany de Banyoles es el lago más grande de Catalunya, en la provincia de Girona. Es el principal símbolo de la ciudad de Banyoles. El lago y su cuenca lacustre son considerados el conjunto cárstico más extenso de España, constituyendo un sistema medioambiental de notable valor.

Situado en el oeste del término municipal de Banyoles, fue declarado por la Generalitat de Catalunya como zona integrante del Plan de Espacios de Interés Natural. En 2003 se incluyó en la lista Ramsar de Zonas Húmedas de Importancia Internacional, solicitándose por varios colectivos la instauración de un Parque Natural.

L'Estany de Banyoles es de origen tectónico y cárstico. Se formó en la época cuaternaria, hace unos 250 000 años. Los movimientos tectónicos producidos por la formación de los Pirineos abrieron la falla del Ampurdán. La erosión y otros fenómenos geológicos crearon la zona lacustre.

El primer Estany de Banyoles tenía una extensión muy superior a la actual, inundando las riberas unos 6 u 8 metros por encima del nivel actual de las aguas.

Las pesquerías son pequeñas construcciones que se encuentran en las aguas del lago en la orilla oriental y declaradas Bien Cultural de Interés Nacional (en la categoría de Jardín Histórico) por la Generalitat de Catalunya.

En total hay 20 pesquerías, cada una con un nombre particular. Su construcción comenzó a mediados del siglo XIX hasta 1931, y durante estos años han sido renovados y acondicionados.

Inicialmente, el papel de la pesquería era mantener el material para la pesca. Posteriormente, muchos de ellos aumentaron la superficie para poder almacenar un bote. Finalmente, con la llegada de la práctica del deporte y el ascenso de la burguesía banyolina, se adaptaron para poder nadar e incluso quedarse.

L'Estany de Banyoles is the largest lake in Catalonia, in the province of Girona. It is the main symbol of the city of Banyoles. The lake and its lacustrine basin are considered the most extensive karst complex in Spain, constituting an environmental system of remarkable value.

Located in the west of the municipality of Banyoles, it was declared by the Generalitat de Catalunya as an integral part of the Plan of Spaces of Natural Interest. In 2003 it was included in the Ramsar list of Wetlands of International Importance, requesting by several groups the establishment of a Natural Park.

L'Estany de Banyoles is of tectonic and karstic origin. It was formed in the Quaternary era, about 250,000 years ago. The tectonic movements produced by the formation of the Pyrenees opened the Ampurdán fault. Erosion and other geological phenomena created the lacustrine zone.

The first Estany de Banyoles had a much higher extension than the current, flooding the banks about 6 or 8 meters above the current level of water.

The fishery are small constructions that are found in the water of the lake on the east bank and declared Cultural Good of National Interest (in the category of Historic Garden) by the Generalitat de Catalunya.

In total there are 20 the fishery, each with a particular name. Its construction began in the mid-nineteenth century until 1931, and over these years they have been renovated and conditioned.

Initially, the role of the fishery was to keep the material for fishing. Subsequently, many of them increased the surface in order to be able to store a boat. Finally, with the arrival of the practice of sport and the rise of the banyolina bourgeoisie, they adapted to be able to swim and even to stay.
