Calella

Calella is a town located in the Maresme region of Spain. Recently, the town's historical Rocapins beach bar ('chiringuito') took a step towards being declared a Bien Cultural de Interés Local (BCIL), a designation recognizing its cultural, scenic, and touristic value. This initiative by the Calella Town Hall aims to protect this unique structure located on Les Roques beach. Separately, though not directly related to Calella's local government, a significant healthcare development involves a group of five medium-sized hospitals, including one where Pere Rebasa works as the head of clinical surgery, forming an unprecedented alliance to jointly purchase surgical robots. This collaborative effort aims to reduce costs and advance robotic surgery capabilities, benefiting over a million patients. These developments highlight Calella's focus on preserving its cultural heritage and its connection to broader regional healthcare advancements.
