The magazine Les Garrotxes, in its 38th issue (autumn-winter), delves into trades that have disappeared or transformed over time and with technological advancements. The special issue covers a wide range of professions such as rope makers, night watchmen, housekeepers, basket weavers, seamstresses, carters, tripe dressers, coopers, midwives, armorers, healers, and candlemakers.
This publication aims to evoke the different ways of learning, working, and relating to others that were fundamental in building the towns and cities of Catalonia.
One of the notable protagonists of this issue is Dolors Saus, known as a 'pescallunes' (a traditional candlemaker), who for years was dedicated to the artisanal production of candles and tapers at Cereria de Can Casas. Saus will participate in the issue's presentation.
