Cheap car hire Reus airport
Reus was first mentioned in the 13th
century, but its commercial life dates from 1750 when an English settlement was established there. Reus gained
the status of a city in the 1840s.
Reus in Spain is a picturesque town that was once
famous for the production of Brandy.
Situated in south-eastern Catalonia,
Reus is the region's major commercial and cultural centre. During the eighteenth century, it was the international
point of reference for the brandy trade (hence the saying 'Reus, Paris, and London'), and as such became
Catalonia's second city. With the advent of the industrial revolution in the nineteenth century, the city underwent
a boom, fuelled by the textile industry.
