  • Plandolit Angles
    Lost historical memory is recovered through research and a part of it is materialised in museums. This is the case with the Casa d’Areny-Plandolit Museum. Considering the household as a place of learning and perpetuation of customs, the museum shows us how a family evolves and transforms itself in parallel with the rooms of the house, in order to convey to us a peculiar form of life that helps us better understand the social and economic changes of the time. Tracing the family’s line of heirs, one sees the progression of a family that, from Ordino, achieved an important economic, social and political role on both sides of the Pyrenees. The development of the family’s economic activity indicates to us its importance within the country’s economic structure. On the one hand it controlled livestock networks that extended from Andorra to the plane of Urgell; on the other it managed dozens of shepherds and thousands of cattle heads. At the same time the family was active in the main markets of Urgell, and worked with businessmen from the cities of Lleida and Barcelona. Meanwhile, the family also conducted business with merchants from Toulouse, and its commercial activity (textiles, clothing, etc) reached the Ebre river. From livestock farmers they became businessmen and finally, forge owners. In short, the expansion of Areny’s house dominions (Andorra, Alt Urgell, Cerdanya, Osona, Pallars) allowed the family’s heirs to live off their private incomes. This was especially true in the case of Guillem de Plandolit, who led most of the changes in the family’s economic structure.
