Barri G�tic

The Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter) is the center of the old city of Barcelona. Many of the buildings date from Medieval times, some from as far back as the Roman settlement of Barcelona. Remains of the squared Roman Wall can be seen around Tapineria and Sots-Tinent Navarro to the north, Avinguda de la Catedral and Plaça Nova to the west and Carrer de la Palla to the south.

Essentially a labyrinth full of small streets opening out into placas, Barri Gotic is closed to regular traffic although open to service vehicles and taxis.
