We begin at Arc de Triomf, one of Barcelona’s most iconic landmarks. Here we’ll introduce the city’s 19th-century expansion and set the tone for the walk before heading toward the park.

We walk along Passeig de Lluís Companys, a wide promenade connecting the arch with Ciutadella Park, perfect for photos and a relaxed introduction to local life.

Inside Ciutadella Park, we explore its green spaces and the famous fountain. You’ll hear about the park’s transformation and its role in the city’s history while enjoying one of Barcelona’s most pleasant public spaces.

From outside El Born Centre, we discuss the hidden ruins beneath the former market and the story of Barcelona in 1714. This stop offers historical context without entering the museum.

We walk through Passeig del Born, one of the liveliest areas in the city. This is where medieval streets meet contemporary culture, cafés, and local life.

Next to Santa Maria del Mar, we stop at Fossar de les Moreres, a historic memorial site linked to the events of 1714. Here we reflect on the symbolic flame that never goes out and its meaning in Catalan memory.

We end at Santa Maria del Mar, a masterpiece of Catalan Gothic architecture. Here we wrap up the tour and I’ll share recommendations for exploring El Born further.
