Sant Corneli colony
The Sant Corneli colony, as were the neighbouring colonies of Sant Josep and La Consolació, was the most important mining centre in Catalonia and the one with the most extensive mines, which were located in the municipal areas of Cercs, Fígols and Vallcebre. These mines were exploited by the company Carbones de Berga, S.A., founded in 1911, which operated until 1991.
