The Mercado de San José, popularly known as La Boqueria is a market town located in the Rambla of Barcelona ( Catalonia ). Besides being a place where you can buy all kinds of fresh produce, it is also a tourist attraction. It has an area of 2583 m² over 300 stalls offering a variety of local and exotic products to both private buyers and restaurateurs in town. It is the biggest market in Catalonia, the most varied food supply and also the most visited by tourists.
The market was opened in 1840, but its origins are outdoors, at the gates of the old city, on the esplanade of Pla de la Boqueria, where hawkers and farmers of the villages and nearby farms were installed in order to sell their products, before the city out of its first walls. This market grew outside the walls of the city to save tax incoming goods.
Before the market was in the same place the convent of San Jose. In 1586 the Discalced Carmelites (named els Josepets being broadcasters, with Teresa at the helm, the popular cult figure of San José ) founded the convent in the place where today is the market. In the early twentieth century, the Rambla had from the Carme Street to the entire width Petxina today is facing the Palacio de la Virreina. The market was located in the space between the houses and trees, divided into distinct sectors according to the product being sold.
The current metal cover was opened in 1914. The last architectural change in the market was in the year 2000, and another that affect mostly the square is now preparing Gardunya. Over the years, it has become emblematic market in all of Barcelona. The group of vendors, structure and market situation makes it a must visit for shoppers and tourists. More and more market establishments run by immigrants, which are specialties from Japan, Italy, Greece and the Arab countries.
Before the market was St. Joseph Convent of the same name. The 1586 Carmelite -anomenats "the Josepets" to be the diffusers dedicated to Saint Josep-founded the convent of St. Joseph to the place where today is the market. In the early nineteenth century, the Rambla had from Carmen street until the entire width Shell has today in front of the Palace of Virreina. The market was located in the space between the houses and trees, divided into distinct sectors according to the product being sold.
The old market stalls of St. Joseph (known locally as La Boqueria) were located in the Raval district, and delimited with square Gardunya (north), and the streets Hospital (South) Florists from La Rambla ( west) and Jerusalem (east). Data are scarce documentary about the construction of these awnings, plus the few historical news deal with the construction, extension and rehabilitation of the San Jose market and not the above-mentioned stops. The council promoted the construction of a market in land allerats for the confiscation of church property in the convent of San Jose, between 1838 and 1840 under the direction of architect Josep Mas i Vila.
With the silting up of the former Convent of St. Mary of Jerusalem in 1868, authorizing the temporary lifting of the covered square Gardunya (a process that lasted until 1885). Perhaps it was then that settled stops under study, although not documented until 1908. These are simple constructions made from unidirectional bearing walls and floors, both with joists concrete or wooden curved (some existing embedded within the wall of the old monastery). These served as auxiliary storage Boqueria market.
Archaeological work developed in the square Gardunya Barcelona provides positive results related to market Gardunya, the former convent of Santa Maria of Jerusalem and domestic buildings prior to this. It is also documented by a survey structures along the side chapels the chapel of the Hospital of the Holy Cross.
Moreover in the section practiced in the corridors of the Boqueria market is only one documented structure that corresponds to a wall that passed in NW-SE direction. The coincidence in the arrangement of this structure with the current market suggests that there may be some relationship between the two, being perhaps one of the set of pillars and riostes who joined in the database work on the new market to provide consistency throughout the structure and dates from the mid nineteenth century.
