At the confluence of the Matarraña and the Ebro, but next to Aragón, in the heart of La Franja, we find the small town of Fayón. A town with a rather curious and at the same time sad and tragic history. In the first half of the last century, Fayón was a lively town, a key port for the transportation of goods along the Ebro. The llaüts sailed its waters, stopping in Fayón to stock up and load the lignite from the mines of Mequinenza, Almatret, and Fayón, heading to the train station on the Madrid-Barcelona line. At that time, there was a population of 1800 inhabitants.
