Overview
What We’ll Discover:
- La Lonja
We’ll start with a Gothic mystery. I’ll show you the city’s “chilliest” gargoyle (yes, it’s wearing clothes) and the secret of the Virgin of the Frog.
- Parque del Mar
We’ll head down to the exact spot where the city was founded to understand how the sea used to crash against the city walls.
- Paseo del Borne
Did you know that some sphinxes caused a social scandal? We’ll discover the strange head that watches over the promenade and the reason behind the controversy.
- The Cathedral (La Seu)
Forget the postcards. We’ll talk about the secrets of its bell tower and some mysterious stone balls that hide a story that will surprise you.
- The Old Jewish Quarter
We’ll venture into the silence of Monti-Sión to trace the footsteps of the ancient synagogue.
- San Francisco
A love story between young people that ended in the most tragic way, a Virgin of the Lightning, and a tombstone that shouldn’t be there.
- Santa Eulalia
The site of numerous public executions, a cross with a dark past, and a mysterious single-hand clock.
- City Hall
We’ll finish by looking for the facade’s most famous “residents”: the snail and the lizard. Do you know why they’re there?
