Parc de la Ciutadella

Situated in the centre of Ciutat Vella, in Ribera Quarter, Santa Caterina Market has been an exceptional witness of Barcelona history as it was the first covered market in the city. The construction of the market started in 1844 and the market was opened in 1848, trying to favour the food supply for the city popular sector and to have a place in the city devoted to wholesale and retail commerce..
