Gerona coins catalog with values

 

Gerona is an ancient Herunda, a city of the Ausetans (Iberians from pre-Roman times). The Romans built their citadel on this site.
After them, Gerona was inhabited by the Visigoths until the Moors conquered the city in 715.
In 785 Gerona was conquered by Charles I the Great, who made it one of the fourteen counties of Catalonia. However, as early as 793, the Moors recaptured the city. From then until the final expulsion of the Moors in 1015, Gerona changed hands many times and was sacked several times.

In 878 the city became part of the county of Barcelona. In the 11th century Alfonso I of Aragon declared Gerona an independent city, and in the early 15th century Ferdinand I granted the title of Prince of Gerona to his first son Alfonso.

Girona's Jewish community flourished in the 12th century. Today, the medieval Jewish quarter of Gerona (Kall), where the community lived, is one of the best preserved unaltered Jewish neighborhoods in Europe.

In May 1809, Gerona was besieged for 7 months by Napoleon's 35,000-strong army. During French rule, which lasted from 1809 to 1813, Gerona became the prefecture of the department of Terce.
