Get to Know the Market
A little background
he Galvany Market was founded in 1868, but its official opening was delayed until 1927. It was built on land donated by the Count of Galvany, and the need for it became more urgent after the Sant Gervasi neighborhood was annexed to Barcelona in 1897. The building, listed as an artistic monument, combines Modernism with new trends in ironwork and is organized on a single floor in the shape of a Greek cross.
