<p>Fira Medieval i Festa de la Sal de Cardona</p>

One of the most typical ways to relive the Middle Ages in Catalonia and Barcelona is to explore their vast Romanesque and Gothic heritage. But you may not know about the many mediaeval fairs that can be enjoyed throughout the year in several towns close to Barcelona.

<p>Calella Lighthouse</p>

Calella is the tourism capital of the Maresme region, long renowned for the beauty of its beaches. But the city has plenty of other attractions that make it a must-see place to visit in the regions of Barcelona. This essential guide, listing just seven of them, is just a little taster to whet your appetite for exploring the rest!

<p>Sant Martí del Brull</p>

Following in the footsteps of Bishop Oliba a thousand years after his appointment as Bishop of Vic has encouraged us to explore other Romanesque gems in the area surrounding Barcelona, because there’s always some secret left to discover. If we had a protractor, the city of Vic would be at the centre of its base, just a few kilometres from places where Romanesque heritage blends into beautiful nature.
