Do you want to get to know the capital of Las Garrigas region? On this guided tour of Borjas Blancas, you'll discover its rich history, admire iconic monuments, and enjoy a curated olive oil tasting!
Description
To get this guided tour underway, we'll meet first at Plaza Ramón Arqués before exploring Borjas Blancas.
We'll begin with our first stop at the exterior chapel wall of a medieval hospital, then walk to Plaza 1 de Octubre, the original site of the old Town Hall.
Next, we'll stroll through Terrall Park and arrive at our second stop, Espai Macià, an interpretative center providing insights into one of Catalunya's notable political figures.
After learning about Francesc Macià, we'll visit the Cal Gineret Olive Oil Mill, which served as a shelter during the Spanish Civil War. The tour will cover life during the bombings between 1938 and 1939 at this 19th-century historic building.
Before leaving the mill, we'll enjoy a curated selection of olive oils produced on-site. This hour-and-a-half tour of Borjas Blancas will conclude as we return to the starting point.
