Aristocratic palaces |
Barcelona, Barcelona 08002 +34 93 285 3834 (Informacion Turistica) |
The street stretches from the Plaça Sant Just to the Baixada de Viladecols and it's where Barcelona's aristocrats choose to live from the 13th-15th centuries. Many of their noble mansions have survived, like Palau Moixó (Plaça Sant Just, 4) or Palau Fivaller (Carrer del Lledó, 4), a Gothic building with Baroque and Renaissance embellishments. At number 7, there's a Renaissance mansion, which retains its original windows and gargoyles. The 14th century Palau de la Reina Elionor lies a little further along the same street. The Sant Rafael mansion at No.11 has a patio with truncated columns bearing a covered balcony. Review © 2009, Wcities |
