Barcelona, a photo a day

Sant Jaume


DSC00165-Edit

Probably the very first church in BCN… Sant Jaume, well hidden in plain sight, on Carrer Ferran, just inside the gates of Barcino, the roman Barcelona, 1 mn from the Ramblas. It was renovated in 1388, but the earliest mention dates back to 985 AD, where it was called the old church…

  1. The candles add color. I would love to visit there.

  2. Quite dramatic lit up like this. And if it was already referred to as the old church a millennium ago, who knows how far it goes back?
