MAIN TOURIST ATTRACTIONS Monument to the Fisherman’s Wife This monument is a bronze sculpture found at the end of Lloret beach erected in 1966 to commemorate Lloret de Mar’s Millennium. It is considered to be one of the town’s most emblematic symbols. Legend states that touching the sculpture’s foot while looking out at the horizon will make your wishes come true. Castle os Sant Joan The castle is situated at the top of the hill which separates the beaches of Lloret de Mar and Fenals anddates back to the beginning of the 11th century, possibly from the age of Lady Sicardis and her sons, the Lords of Lloret, when it controlled the feudal territory of Lloret. The origins of the Castle of Sant Joan are the origins of thetown of Lloret. Santa Clotilde’s garden This wonderful garden was landscaped in a setting of great beauty on top of a cliff with breath-taking views over the sea, and it is a fine specimen of the spirit thatanimated the Noucentista movement in Catalonia - an early twentieth-century movement for intellectual and aesthetic renewal that found a distinguished spokesman in the writer Eugeni d'Ors. The Santa Clotilde gardens were designed in the manner of the dainty yet austere gardens of the Italian Renaissance by Nicolau Rubió i Tudurí at the age of twenty-eight.
