Plaça Molina and the Joan Maragall House and Museum

Favorites

The C/ Balmes-Via Augusta crossroads is where you will find one of Barcelona’s most emblematic squares: Plaça de Molina, in the Sarrià-Sant Gervasi district.

Urban spaces

Plaça Molina represents a shot of vermouth just before lunch on a sunny Saturday, while living a life of contemplation at one of its many outdoor café tables. Here, you’re surrounded by culture. This was the birthplace of Dau al Set, an avant-garde group led by famous artists such as Antoni Tàpies, Joan Brossa and Modest Cuixart. Art and literature come together here and you will find a statue paying tribute to the poet Joan Maragall. As you walk over to the fountain in the centre of the square, the bust of the poet draws you over to Carrer Alfons XII. There, at number 79, stands the Maragall home and Museum.
