Barcelona Roman and Medieval Walking Concert
À propos
Most people walk past Roman walls every day in Barcelona without noticing them. This tour changes that permanently.
Professional musician and performer Mania leads you on a 2-hour walking concert through the Roman and medieval heart of the city: 13 stops, 13 original songs, and 2,000 years of history delivered with the energy of a live show. From the ancient gates of Porta del Mar to the Roman towers of Porta Pretoria, from a tucked-away seniors’ centre hiding a stretch of Roman wall to the strange and joyful feast of Tres Tombs every location has a story, and every story has a song.
This is Barcelona as your guidebook never told it: scholarly, hilarious, and performed live in the streets.
