A stand-up comedy venue in Barcelona. This is the original location, open 3 nights a week with stand-up comedy shows and improv comedy shows. In the past they have enjoyed performances from some of the greats of stand-up comedy including: Louis CK, Trevor Noah, Mark Normand, Michelle Wolf, Kyla Cobbler, Mike Rice.
The new venue of The Comedy Clubhouse, opened in 2025 with a full kitchen with serving North American soul food as well as producing stand-up comedy shows every day of the week and live music, karaoke, pub quizzes etc. Many of the events are completely free, although you are encouraged to eat and drink, whereas the higher end events that they do that feature the best local comedians or international touring comedians can cost up to around €30 at times. It's strongly recommended to book in advance as it often sells out (especially on a Friday or Saturday night).
This square has been the political hub since the Roman era. It has been witness to some of the most important events in modern Catalan history, such as the proclamation of the Catalan State in 1931. At one end, there is the Palace of the Generalitat (the one with two flags on the top, the government of the Autonomous Community of Catalunya) and on the other stands the City Hall (three flags). Both are Gothic buildings, although their fronts are newer (the Generalitat's is the best example of Barcelona's Renaissance art). But if you can go inside, both are very important civil Gothic buildings. The two buildings have guides.
2,000 years of history that remounts to the days when Barcelona was a Roman enclave, uncover charming squares and hidden gems where the locals hang out these days.
One of the most representative examples of Catalan Gothic architecture, it features a sombre but beautiful interior. The upsweeping verticality and lightness of the interior are especially surprising considering the blocky exterior surfaces. Built between 1329 and 1383, it was once was home to a Christian cult in the late 3rd century. The church is dedicated to Saint Mary of the Sea, since the quarter was dedicated to the jobs related to the sea, from sailors to harbor works, commerce, even coin exchange. The inside was burned during the civil war, but it is still very interesting. Next to the church, you can see a monument, called Fossar de les Moreres, which is the place where many fighters were buried after the Barcelona defeat in 1714, so it is an important monument for Catalan nationalism.
Includes access to underground Roman ruins and a complex of historic buildings in the centre of the Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter), and is a reasonably good historical museum.
