Image of Olost, not of the place itself.

In 1835 the Carlist bands attacked and occupied Olost and burned the parish church, cutting short the cycle of textile prosperity that the villa had enjoyed since the middle of the eighteenth century. The population went from 1,211 inhabitants in 1857 to 917 in 1900.
