Gothic Quarter Tour

Do you know the city’s true stories? Have you ever visited the religious place where unmarried women once abandoned their newborn babies?

Walk the same streets as the Vampire of El Raval and discover the dark story of the woman who took the lives of many children. Or perhaps you’ll want to see where the city’s executioner once lived. Step back in time and discover a day in the life of Antoni Gaudí, what inspired his works and the hospital in which he drew his last breath.

Places with their own stories, such as the Pont del Bisbe, the Hospital, Barcelona’s oldest churches and buildings or one of Europe’s oldest synagogues. Buildings which are now part of history, like the Roman towers or the aqueduct.

Don’t miss this chance to get to know Barcelona in a way that no other agency or tour guide can show you — the Authentic Barcelona.
