Societat Catalana de Gnomònica

The Societat Catalana de Gnomónica (Catalan Gnomonic Society) is, among other cultural groups, a non-profit association that promotes all aspects of sundials.

[1][2][3] One of the most interesting aspects of this association is the creation and conservation of an inventory of existing sundials in the Catalan Countries.

[4] The Societat Catalana de Gnomónica (Association for the study of the sundial and the measurement of time) has been established since 1988 and is governed by the Statutes approved by the Generalitat of Catalonia and by Law 4/2008, of April 24, of the third book of the Civil Code of Catalonia, relative to legal persons.

[5] The association aspires to bring together everyone who is interested in the various aspects of the study and promotion of the techniques and arts related to Gnomonics and the measurement of time.

[14][15] With the patronage of the Societat Catalana de Gnomónica there is a sundial installed at the Amundsen-Scott Station.
