Taking a stroll and losing yourself in Sitges’ old town stimulates your emotions. A visit that shows that Sitges is a unique destination. With the sound of the sea as your companion, we suggest taking a journey through the town’s history, strolling along its cobbled alleyways, lined on both sides by palaces and ancient castles as well as historic buildings from the Modernisme and Noucentisme movements. Go with the flow…

Plaça del Baluard

One of the most emblematic viewpoints in the town, where the parish church of Sant Bartomeu and Santa Tecla (from the 17th century), popularly known as La Punta, stands. It is the most representative monument of the skyline of Sitges. Plaça del Baluard is, furthermore, the gateway to visit the town’s old quarter.

Carrer de Fonollar

Turning east from Plaça del Baluard, we reach Carrer de Fonollar, home to the Cau Ferrat Museum and the Maricel complex (Maricel Museum and Palau de Maricel). If we continue down the street, we reach the Vidal-Quadras Bastion, where one of the town’s most beloved beaches appears: Sant Sebastià beach.

Carrer de la Davallada

From Carrer de Fonollar, if we turn left towards Carrer de Sant Joan, we come across Carrer de la Davallada. On this road we can contemplate the ruins of the old medieval wall, which we can explore if we continue along Carrer d’en Bosc.

Calle d'en Bosc

Welcome to the oldest street in Sitges: Carrer d’en Bosc. This street, which flanks the town walls, has an irregular layout and buildings with arched doorways that instantly immerse us in the town’s medieval past. The Palau del Rei Moro (Palace of the Moorish King), a Gothic building included in the Architectural Heritage Inventory of Catalonia, is a great help on this journey through time.
