Intro
Unique establishments in a Unique Neighborhood
We invite you to enjoy the Gothic Quarter, the neighborhood with the most history in Barcelona, in a different way: visiting those streets and shops that make it unique and also make the people who visit them feel special because they are unique, they are rooted in the neighborhood, they have character and often have memorable stories to share.
Some are centenarians and others younger, but behind these shops there are people in love with their work and the products they offer you. Craftsmen, merchants, bars or restaurants who are passionate about offering a unique experience that you can only find in the Gothic Quarter.
We consider them a treasure for local shopping!
Perhaps you will discover some stores or restaurants that you did not know about them and perhaps you can revisit one that you have not been to for a long time or that you have already been told about.
How to discover them?
When you see the sign on the door, we encourage you to enter, discover its charm and the products they offer you.
In this website we briefly explain their history and we show you the portrait, based on family photographs of the stores/restaurants themselves and other historical ones from the Photographic Association of Catalonia and the Historical Archive of Barcelona. We want to go inside them and show you all these establishments and streets that make unique the historical center of Barcelona.
The categories that will be taken as reference will be the following:
- Unique streets in the Gothic Quarter
- Unique shops in the Gothic Quarter
- Unique bars and restaurants in the Gothic Quarter
Together, with you, we want to make the list of establishments bigger and support a type of business and a unique neighborhood!
