Large land-owning and service provider families began to decide on the road to arrange their houses from the 13th century onwards, building large houses which, over time, grew to become metropolis palaces. The road known as Carrer de Montcada follows the identical route that when linked the port and the highway leading to Rome from the western facet of the primary walled city of Barcelona (the present-day Plaça de l’Àngel). The lower a half of the road was occupied by an in depth area of the necropolis that surrounded the early Santa Maria del Mar church from the end of the Roman period. The street referred to as Carrer de Montcada is at present the most important space of mediaeval civic structure in the metropolis. One can’t think well, love well, sleep nicely, if one has not dined properly as goes the proverb by Virginia Woolf… That is why there are jobs within the gastronomy sector to satisfy the guests’ culinary needs. Barcelona’s Carrer Montcada is lined with a succession of medieval, Renaissance and baroque palazzos, their majestic doorways opening to reveal their lovely courtyards of venerable stone.
