Pza Sant Jaume

With more than two thousand years of history, the heart of Sant Jaume Plaza beats to the rhythm of the city. It hosts the Palacio de la Generalitat and the Barcelona City Hall, two buildings with gothic and renaissance architecture. This has made it a point of historic and social interest where you will find exhibits, concerts, and festivities.

As you leave the plaza, you will find access to the cathedral, La Rambla, the Boqueria market, and el Born, four of the city’s most emblematic spaces.

The plaza’s surroundings are filled with interesting places and quaint narrow streets that snake through the city center. You will find characteristic craft workshops and stores, traditional farms, and enchanting restaurants.
