Overview
The route begins in the imposing Priory of Sant Pere, where a medieval city that begins to stand out in trade is drawn. Ancient markets, streets and squares tell us about the daily life of the people of Reus in the past, but also about their mentality regarding death and their beliefs.
The route continues through the streets of the old town, discovering details that tell the history of Reus, such as Hospital Street, Farinera Square or the ruins of the medieval wall, until you reach the most central point: Mercadal Square.
Then, the route moves forward and so does in time. The 19th and 20th centuries open the way with the famous "Reus, Paris, London". It comes, then, the city of vermouth and one of the most notable references of modernist architecture.
However, it will also be inevitable to talk about war, memory and bombings.
The route ends with a tasting of the most outstanding buildings and the most industrial area designed by the bourgeoisie of the time.
In short, a tour that aims to delve into the history of the city from the details that do not appear in books.
