EXCAVATION SITE AND MUSEUM
An old market hall that happens to stand over archaeological remains from a part of the city demolished from 1714 onwards. An important year for the Catalans, this market hall is now also a cultural center of Catalan history.
My rating:
The positives:
Beautiful old market hall with iron construction that can inspire everyone and the excavations will bring you closer to historical facts that are very important for Catalonia.
The negatives:
The exhibitions are more for those interested in history.
