About
The intense conversation between Barcelona and the Mediterranean Sea has always been about how the quest for order is confronted by the obstinate reality of urban chaos, which is precisely what makes it all so interesting!
As a fortified city and a retreat for Roman legionaries, it was called Barcino. Later, when “Santa Maria!” was the oath on every soldier’s and sailor’s lips, medieval Barcelona was a city ruled by the shipowners and merchants of Mare Nostrum. Over the years, it has also explored its modernist, worker, industrial and Olympic facets, and even as a forum of cultures, but through it all, Barcelona has always been one with the sea, the Mediterranean.
We will walk along narrow streets, parks, beaches, and breakwaters, where we’ll try to tell the story of the sea and how it seems to have left the city center while we have been overtaken by time.
In the meantime, we’ll visit the Roman defensive walls and the Temple of Augustus, Santa María del Mar church, Moll de la Fusta wharf by Manuel de Solà-Morales, Barceloneta Market by Josep Miàs, Casa de la Marina apartment building by Jose Antonio Coderch, Somorrostro beach in Barceloneta and, finally, the Barcelona skyline.
Together let's take care of the environment and turn the future into a better destination. For a regenerative tourism.
