Mossén Sorell Market

In this place there was already in the eighteenth century a small square, which was widened and regularized at the end of the following century, after the voracious fire that completely destroyed the Gothic palace of Mossén Sorell. The space defined by this new square has occupied since the late 1920s a small public market, designed by the municipal architect Àngel Romaní.

With an almost square floor plan, its stalls are located next to two interior streets that intersect in a slender central roundabout. Built with modern materials, concrete and iron, its roof plan has five octagonal prisms, one central and large on the roundabout and four small at the corners. Rehabilitated in 1987, replacing materials and trellising its outer perimeter, it continues to function as a vital infrastructure of the neighborhood.
