The climate of Gerona (Spain)
Gerona is a large city located in the northeastern part of Spain in
the Gerona province in the Catalonia region. Two rivers flow through
the city, the Ter River and the Onyar River. It is an old city which
was founded by the Romans. Later on the city was inhabited by the
Visigoths, Moors and Christians. Many remains from these eras can be
found in the city. Most sights can be found in the old part of the
city which was built against the hills. Here you can find the Gerona
Cathedral, the Santa Feliu church, Arab bathhouses and parts of the
old city wall. Despite its location in the interior Gerona has a
Mediterranean climate strongly influenced by the Mediterranean Sea.
Because the city is located in the interior the cooling effect of the
Mediterranean Sea is slightly lower causing temperatures to be
slightly higher during the summer. During the winter it may be
slightly colder here than in other places in Spain. Precipitation
figures are low, only during fall long lasting precipitation may
occur.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
