Yep... just a reminder that we live with earthquakes here..

The earth trembled on Saturday, 21 March 1829 at 6.15 pm, on a 6.6 Richter scale magnitude.

Houses with several floors, with no foundations, which were supported by weak wood beams and located in narrow streets, fell over with their inhabitants inside.

In Torrevieja all houses were knocked down, Guardamar had to be redesigned and Almoradi was the most affected town.

A total of 2,965 houses were destroyed and another 2,396 houses were affected by this earthquake.

There was a total of 386 dead victims and 375 injured.
