Pont del Carrer del Bisbe-Barcelona-Sunday Bridges

Pont del Carrer del Bisbe - Barcelona

El 1928, Joan Rubió i Bellver va construir el pont neogòtic que uneix la Casa dels Canonges amb el Palau de la Generalitat. La decoració s'inspira en les formes del gòtic flamíger. Malgrat la seva modernitat, constitueix una de les estampes més populars i un dels elements més fotografiats del Barri Gòtic barceloní.

Weekend Reflections # 64

Casa de l'Ardiaca

Archdeacon House
Barcelona

The Casa de l'Ardiaca (Archdeacon House) was rebuilt in the 15th-16th century by order of the Archdeacon Lluís Desplà, who converted his residence into a Gothic and Renaissance palace. In the 19th century, several owners made changes. In 1924 it became the site of the Arxiu Històric de la Ciutat de Barcelona (Historical Archives of the City). The current look of the square side dates from 1962, when the houses attached to the Roman wall were torn down. In the early 2000' the building was entirely restored.
