In XX century, after Civil War in 1936, emigration was important. In decade of sixties, tourist phenomena completely changed life of Creixell, as well as most of littoral villages of Costa Dorada. GASTRONOMY There is a few typical dishes such as ‘esmarris’, a peculiar way of eating anchovies and blue fish. ‘All i Pebre’ is another dish consisting of fish stew served with their best local wine. Another very typical dish is ‘el Rossejat’ which consists of rice, but toasted. To manage this, they pour rice on top of boiling olive oil, letting it toast, and later pouring some stock. FIESTAS AND TRADITIONS On 25th of July they celebrate ‘minor major fiesta’, in honour to Sant Jaume. There is another major fiesta called ‘Minerva’, celebrated on third Sunday of September, in honour to ‘Santisim Sacrament’.

ECONOMY The agriculture was most important activity in Creixell, until 1960. Since then, this activity has decreased in number of employees. In irrigated lands, which are ones that give higher profits, farmers grow some vegetables. The dry lands have almost disappeared, although carob tree is still important, which is used as a raw material by many industries. The activities related with cattle, fishing and industry are very infrequent. The tourism has been basic activity since 1960. All necessary equipment for tourists has been installed, and this has necessarily changed structure of village (camping’s, apartments, etc).

The tourists who visit Creixell come from nearest counties and enjoy village not only during Summer but all weekends throughout year.
