Plaza del Carmen

Noticeably rectangular square, one of the oldest and best delineated in the city, defined around the monumental complex consisting of the bell tower, oval chapel and doorway of the Carme church. The central garden space, with a statue of the painter Joan de Joanes, is surrounded by buildings from different periods and among them stands out the severe doorway of the Palace of Pineda. Extended in 1946 towards the side façade of the church, with trees and Mariano Benlliure fountain, it has been recently urbanized and its residential buildings are gradually being rehabilitated.
