Sightseeing in Barcelona: Gothic and Roman City



Gothic quarter of Barcelona's medieval and roman city


The Barrio Gotico gothic quarter is the medieval city of Barcelona from the middle ages. It grew around the old 
Roman town of Barcino which is the oldest part of Barcelona. The gothic part of the city has many beautiful churches, plazas, markets and museums and you can see parts of the old Roman walls. If you visit the Barcelona history museum (Museu d’Historia de la Ciutat) you can see remains of Roman houses and streets of Barcino in Roman times under the museum. The gothic quarter is free to visit and best seen on foot because tour buses cannot get through the narrow streets. Also worth visiting is the neighbouring medieval area of Barcelona's old city called El Born.
