Huesca 1901: A Geographic Overview of Aragon's Northern Frontier in Spain
About the Item
The map provided is of the province of Huesca, located in the northeastern part of Spain, within the autonomous community of Aragon, as of the year 1901. Here are some of the key features depicted on the map:
The map illustrates the province's varied topography, including the Pyrenees mountains along the northern border with France. Blue lines represent rivers and lakes, likely including the Ebro River basin, which is significant in the region. Red lines indicate roads and railways, showing the infrastructure that connects Huesca's towns and cities both internally and with neighboring regions. Various symbols denote the locations of cities, towns, and villages, with the capital city, also named Huesca, presumably highlighted.
The coat of arms of Huesca is prominently displayed, reflecting the historical significance of the region with symbols such as the bell and the cross.
About the province of Huesca:
Huesca is known for its stunning natural landscapes, including part of the Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The province is characterized by its high peaks, deep valleys, and glacial lakes in the Pyrenees, as well as the semi-arid central plain. Huesca's economy has traditionally been based on agriculture and livestock, but it has also developed a significant tourism sector focused on winter sports and mountain recreation. The region is culturally rich, with a history that includes Romanesque art and architecture, particularly in the old churches and monasteries scattered throughout the province. It is also home to the historic city of Jaca, which has played a crucial role in the history of the Pyrenees.
