Check the official page before you go.
A free guided walk from Plaça Vila de Madrid to the Pou de la Figuera park to discover the plants, birds and other animals that share the city centre with us — and how they adapt to urban life. Organised for the International Day of Climate Action.
Once a year the historic Poblenou Cemetery opens at night: the paths are lit with candles and guides in period costume lead you to the most remarkable tombs and sculptures, with stories and curiosities about famous people of Barcelona's past. Meeting point: the main façade.
A free walk with local historians through the old core of Sant Martí de Provençals: farmhouses, the old cemetery, the rectory and a visit inside the old church — a village hidden inside Barcelona.
A free walk through the new Glòries park to see how one of Barcelona's busiest road junctions became an urban ecosystem of green spaces and sustainable mobility. Part of the World Capital of Architecture programme.
A guided walk under and around Plaça del Rei through the archaeological remains of Roman Barcino, the Visigothic and episcopal quarter and the medieval Royal Palace — 2,000 years of the city in one place.
A free guided walk through the gardens of Pedralbes Palace: remarkable trees and plants, sculptures, pavilions, a pond, fountains and a pergola.
A free panoramic tour with a guide through the least-known spaces of the castle: its history, its architecture and its relationship with the city over the centuries — plus great views.
A free guided walk among the viewpoints and green spaces of Torre Baró, on the edge of Collserola: spot local plants and animals and see how nature and people share the neighbourhood.
A free sensory route through the streets of Gràcia: listen to the neighbourhood with your eyes closed, measure noise with a sound meter and learn how the city deals with noise — and how Gràcia used to sound.
A free guided walk through Barcelona's first cemetery outside the city walls, opened in 1819 and designed by Italian architect Antonio Ginesi — art, history and stories among its quiet streets.
A free guided walk to the Turull aqueduct and the Font de Sant Salvador, connecting nature and water heritage in Gràcia. For adults; part of Barcelona World Capital of Architecture 2026.
A free walk through El Farró, the neighbourhood that shaped the novels of Mercè Rodoreda — the gardens and quiet streets are mostly gone, but her texts bring them back. Part of the Traces Literàries festival.
A free guided visit to the memorial in Montjuïc Cemetery dedicated to the victims of Franco-era repression and bombings, designed by architect Beth Galí.
A free walk with Oleguer Biete through the Torras i Bages area to discover the history and corners of the former village of Sant Andreu. For adults.
A free guided walk about the 16th–17th-century witch hunts and heresy trials in Catalonia — a 'collective madness' that never caught a single witch red-handed.
A free guided route through Ciutadella park following the water cycle: drinking and ornamental fountains, the monumental waterfall, the big lake and the sculptures, with a look at the park's old trees on the way.
