Have you been in the Borne Market?
Hey everyone!!
You know Barcelona is full of tourist attractions and today, Desigbarcelona would like to introduce you the Borne Market, an area really beautiful and full of history in the centre of Barcelona.
This building was built in 1876 on the basis of a Catalonian architect project, Josep Fontseré i Mestre. A clear example of iron architecture style, a modern and artistic movement which was really important in Catalonia in the XIX century.
Last February 2002 while there were some works in order to install the facilities of a Provincial Lybrary inside the market some middle age archeological remains were founded and this fact was still more important to promote this place as a tourist attraction.
Nowadays, the Borne Market is still closed. The works are making progress and the idea is to turn the market into a cultural centre which explains the Barcelona life of the XVIII century. The new building will be formed by four areas where there will be permanent expositions and walks near the archeological remains and also it would be possible to see performances as the Grec Festival of Barcelona.
The Borne area has really good friendly atmosphere and life. There are a lot of restaurants, bars, shops and also the awesome gotic church “Santa Maria del Mar”.
Desigbarcelona recommends you the area to have a drink if you are visitng Barcelona. Also, we invite you to check and book online your accommodation with us. We are offering such a elegant and designed apartments in the Borne area. Have a look of all our apartments in Barcelona.
