Historical memory. A two-hour tour to understand how wars transform people’s everyday lives.

On Sunday 14 December, there’s a route at 12 noon entitled El Born. 1714 Life in times of war.

Beyond our current concept of wars, do we know what they entail for the population? In this itinerary around the archaeological site in the neighbourhood of El Born, we’ll explore the life of anonymous Barcelona people under the terrible siege by the Bourbons from 1713 to 1714.

 Stories of resistance, insecurity and resilience, common in all wars.
