Santa Maria del Mar
Every time I walk in here I think about the stevedores who carried stone from Montjuïc quarry. Their memory is in the door carvings. The church is a monument to labor.
Built 1329–1384 by the merchants and stevedores of the Ribera. The purest Gothic interior in Catalonia. The neighborhood built it with their own hands.
