Placa Reial

Next your stop will be Placa Reial. Once there was a monastery of the Capuchin Order. It was destroyed in the middle of the nineteenth century. The year 1837 can be considered a turning point in the formation of the urban landscape of Barcelona. Then the Spanish government confiscated land belonging to churches and monasteries, and sold them at auction to private hands. Thus, eighty percent of the church lands located within the city limits changed their owners. So residential areas, squares and markets replaced the churches and monasteries.The square is one of the busiest places in the city. There are many bars, restaurants and nightclubs here. This quarter was the first major urban renewal project in Barcelona.
