Overview
INCLUDES A CAVA/VERMOUTH TASTING AT THE MERCAT DE LA BOQUERÍA
We’ll wander through the alleys between La Rambla del Raval and La Rambla, one of the city’s most iconic thoroughfares, to understand Barcelona’s transformation following the confiscation of convents and church properties in the 19th century, and how it affected the social dynamics of the time.
During this guided tour, we’ll explore the vestiges—sometimes visible, sometimes hidden—of monasteries, churches, and buildings caught between the progress and spirituality of the era. We’ll discover how the emerging bourgeoisie took control of public space and transformed not only land ownership but also the very heart of Barcelona.
We’ll stroll through a place that was once a frontier, a marketplace, a convent, a bourgeois hub, and an urban center. You’ll discover everything from the most iconic spots to the lesser-known spaces that hold centuries of history.
