Barcelona the city of Barcelona, so called since in the 9th century, the entire north of Catalonia was a land of counts and counties.
On my tour we will be able to enjoy one of the most emblematic areas of Barcelona, a site that meant the defense of the city and became a nightmare for its inhabitants.
A great tragedy that marked a before and after in the city, on my tour I will tell you the whole enchanted story!!!
