Fodor's Expert Review Vieux Céret

Place Picasso is the heart of Old Céret, and the sardana dancers and castellers (human tower troops) who perform here are evidence of the pride locals take in their Catalan heritage. While in this pretty quarter, stroll around Place de la Fontaine des Neuf Jets (Nine Fountains Square). Drop into the church, wander out to the lovely fortified Porte de France gateway, then leave the historic town center and head toward the single-arched medieval Pont du Diable (the Devil's Bridge) on the perimeter of town, said to have been built by the Devil himself in a single night.
