THE FUTURE

Carrer Palla is one of the oldest streets in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, which dates back to 1355 when the street was named after the straw tax of Barcelona. The word Palla is Spanish for the word “straw”. Recent demolitions have exposed the remnants of a Roman wall and ancient Jewish baths. During the mid-19th century, Barcelona experienced a period of enormous economic growth as an important international port city with a thriving textile industry and increasing wealth leading to the construction of many buildings by the wealthy Catalan bourgeoisie. This surge in prosperity also fuelled the Catalan Modernism movement with hundreds of magnificent buildings, many of which grace the streets of Barcelona, including Carrer de Palla.
