About this experience
Sitges will impress you with one of the most beautiful promenades in Catalonia, aristocratic houses in modernist and neoclassical styles, spacious avenues, and narrow streets of the Old Town. I will share the history of Sitges' prosperity linked to wealthy local Indianos and tell you about the everyday life of modern townspeople. All this in a friendly and relaxed format.
What to expect
You will see the postcards of Sitges: the church of St. Bartholomew and St. Thecla, Maricel Palace, and others. You will learn about the city's 'fragrant pride' and find yourself where the history of entrepreneur Facund Bacardi began. As well as:
- Visit 5th Avenue and see the Statue of Liberty without moving to New York
- Uncover the symbolism of the cross on the façade of Villa Hivernane
- Decipher why the most common local female name has a grape origin
- Find yourself in a library with an amazing fountain and silk carps
- Check the time with the clock tower in the Spanish Modernism style
- See the museum-workshop of an artist who had a great influence on Picasso
And much more!
