Sornàs
Place in Ordino, Andorra / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sornàs (Catalan pronunciation: [suɾˈnas]) is a village in Andorra, located in the parish of Ordino. Sornás is the first village along the 14 km of the main road 3, which connect Ordino with the Vallnord Ordino-Arcalís ski resort. The village, which due to its size and location looks more like an exclusive urbanization, had, in 2017, a population of 255 inhabitants, according to data from the Statistics Department of the Principality of Andorra.

The work “T'abraça”, which rests in the middle of the first roundabout when leaving Ordino, marks the detour to the village of Sornàs. The sculpture represents the union and friendship between people and, as one would expect in Andorra, is made with materials typical of the area (rock and wrought iron), mimicking better with the environment.
