Ava Gardner Statue
In 1950 Ava Gardner starred with Spanish torero Mario Cabré the film "Pandora and the Flying Dutchman", filmed in Tossa de Mar. Many villagers participated in the shooting and keep a good memory of the beautiful actress, who had an affair with the torero in real life, when she apparently was engaged to Frank Sinatra, who also visited the village. From 1998 a bronze statue of the actress has been placed on a little square with panoramic views inside the Vila Vella, the fortified part in Tossa de Mar. She seems very attractive and looks at the sea horizon, where the Flying Dutchman is still sailing.
