    Barrio Gotico (Barri Gotic)

    Just a short distance away, in the Barri Gòtic, the whole medieval history of Barcelona is on offer, from the difficult cohabitation between Christians and Jews to the construction of churches in which gargoyles tormented witches, just as the devil tormented the men.

    El Born / La Ribera

    Crossing the Via Laietana, you will then enter the Born, the former district of craftsmen and merchants, where the ungodly customs of the people formed the breeding ground for the darkest legends.

    Basílica de Santa Maria del Mar

    Finally, near the church of Santa Maria del Mar, our visit will end between Le Fossar de les Moreres, a memorial to the War of the Spanish Succession, and the Born market, where heretics burned at the stake of the Holy Inquisition, offering an unbearable spectacle to the people of Barcelona.
