Barri Gòtic

PLAÇA DE SANT JAUME
It's hard to imagine that on this very spot a couple of thousand years ago folk in to-
gas would discuss the day's events and Roman politics. For hereabouts lay the
Roman-era forum and the square as you see it today has again been Barcelona's
political hub since at least the 15th century. Facing each other across it are the
Palau de la Generalitat (the seat of Catalonia's government) on the north side, and
the
ajuntament
(town hall) on the south side.
