Plaça del Sol is one of the most popular haunts of Gràcia's residents, a square they see as a meeting point.

  • Urban spaces

A small-town square

It is one of the largest squares in the neighbourhood, built in 1840, when Gràcia was still a small town. A municipal air-raid shelter was built there during the Spanish Civil War but it was demolished at the end of the 20th century. Today you can see the Astrolabi sculpture in one of its corners. You can get there from Carrer de la Lluna or Carrer del Planeta. The square was revamped in 2014 when the paving, benches, lighting and part of the urban furniture were changed.

Bars and restaurants

The Cafè del Sol is one of the square’s legendary venues, a great place for dropping by and taking a step back in time too. It has kept its old decoration. There are other legends too, such as Sol Soler, which offers fusion tapas and snacks that are a big hit with their regular customers.
