the call attacked, survivors taking refuge in the Força Vella

Le call de Gérone fut attaqué, et les survivants se réfugièrent dans la Força Vella, la vieille enceinte fortifiée qui dominait le quartier.

La communauté de Gérone survécut de justesse à cette année et se maintint jusqu'à l'expulsion générale, un siècle plus tard. C'est pourquoi son call est aujourd'hui le mieux conservé d'Espagne : il ne fut ni rasé ni reconstruit, mais seulement vidé de ses habitants, et ses murs sont restés.
