Mercat del Born

Ciutat Vella, Barcelona

🏛️"the most incredible thing is that the traces of those events are still present in the city: under the Born market" (Elena Manukhina)
🏠8,000 square meters of excavated streets and homes to explore
🕰️Sealed and preserved for nearly 300 years like Pompeii

Wander through a 1700s neighborhood frozen in time beneath the soaring iron arches of a 19th-century market hall. The excavated streets, homes, and kitchenware of old Barcelona lie just below your feet, sealed away for nearly 300 years.
