Town Square

PLAÇA DE LES GLÒRIES CATALANES

Plaça de les Glòries Catalanes, is a large square in Barcelona, first designed by Ildefons Cerdà to serve as the city centre in his original urban plan, but nowadays relegated to quite a secondary position. Currently it serves largely as a roundabout of elevated highways. Resembling nothing of what it was intended to be, most of the current Glòries was built in the 1960s, with further additions in the 1990s, as well as some adaptations for the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona.
