What is la girona?

La Girona was a 19th-century Spanish military frigate built in 1784. It was primarily used to transport troops and goods, and it participated in several naval battles during its service. In 1811, La Girona sank off the coast of Ireland during a severe storm while carrying treasures from South America, including silver, gold, and precious stones. The wreck was discovered in the 1960s, and several expeditions have been launched to recover artifacts and treasure from the ship, making it a popular site for recreational divers. The story of La Girona and its treasure has also inspired countless books, movies, and documentaries.
