The celebration of the XXth Symposium of the Spanish Society of History of Psychology will take place in Cadaqués (Girona, Spain) in the "Art i Joia" Hall, between 10 and 12 of May’2007, organized by the Autonomous University of Barcelona.

Wednesday, May 9th will be the welcome act to the congressional representatives with cultural activities, and Saturday, May 12 in the afternoon, when the scientific activity ends, there will be a tour of the area, visiting different places with a cultural and landscape interest.

Cadaqués, in the middle of Cap de Creus peninsula, looking at the sea in a deep bay and surrounded by an extraordinary landscape of gray slate and olive trees, has a singular beauty and personality. Intellectuals and artists like Picasso or Salvador Dalí have given international prestige to the town. That is the reason why Cadaqués has become an important place for painters and plastic artists of the western vanguard.

The popular architecture of the town is led by the church with a gorgeous baroque altarpiece. The white colour of its houses sprinkled with little marks in blue in its doors and windows, the annual Festival of Music, the museums and the walks by the rustic and wonderful landscape of Cap de Creus with the panoramic, are elements that will make congressional representatives enjoy the town where the popular culture and traditions remain with vitality.

If this information is not enough to consider attending our Symposium, it will be the scientific activity that we offer to the congressional representatives: Discussion tables and conferences will take place, in addition to an agenda for the contributions of the congressional representatives can make of this XXth SEHP Symposium an essential place for those who are interested in our historical roots and not only a congress for specialized historians. That is why the organization opens some discussion tables for those people from other areas of knowledge or other scientific disciplines, who have studied the historical part of their interest areas in relation to Psychology.

In addition, the organization of the Congress tries to offer to our congressional representatives some playful-cultural activities that allow combining the scientific activity with the leisure that, accompanied by a splendid landscape, provides a pleasant stay to all the assistants.
