Columns of the Temple of Augustus

Una joya perdida en el barrio gótico de Barcelona. Cuando crees que es imposible descubrir algún rincón, aparece este legado de arte y de historia que nos recuerda el pasado de Barcino, que nos recuerda que existe una Barcelona olvidada, meláncolica de su pasado, escondida e insolita. Creo que lo recóndito de este lugar es su ubicación. Los restos del templo están encajados dentro de un palacio renancentista que actualmente es la sede del Centro Excursionista de Barcelona. Tienes que fijarte mucho, ser muy curioso y caminar sin prisas para no perderte esta parte del legado romano de la ciudad condal. Sólo son cuatro columnas las que permanecen en pie, pero ya en sí, ellas sólas, son todo un descubrimiento. La entrada es gratuita y se accede por la puerta del centro excursionista por lo que el horario depende de este asociación. El efecto que produjo en mí, fue de melancolía de un pasado esplendoroso que ha quedado encerrado en cuatro paredes. Barcino tiene muchos lugares como este. De mis rincones favoritos en Barcelona por su humildad, por su triste belleza, porque a pesar de lo poco que queda en pie, resiste orgulloso el paso del tiempo.

A lost gem in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona. When you think it's impossible to find a corner, you see this legacy of art and history that reminds us Barcino past, reminding us that there is a forgotten Barcelona, ​​melancholic from his past, hidden and insolita. I think the depths of this place is its location. The remains of the temple are embedded within a renancentista palace currently is home to the Barcelona Hiking Centre. You have to look very, very curious and walk leisurely to not miss this part of the Roman heritage of the city. Only four columns which are still standing, but in itself, they alone, are a revelation. Admission is free and is reached by excursion center door so the schedule depends on this association. The effect produced on me was of melancholy to a glorious past that has been stuck in four walls. Barcino has many places like this. From my favorite spots in Barcelona for his humility, her sad beauty, because despite what little remains standing proud resists the passage of time.

Este pequeño rincón de Barcelona es uno de los menos conocidos de toda la ciudad, pese a su importancia histórica y su originalidad. En pocas palabras: Son los restos del antiguo templo romano dedicado a César Augusto en lo que fue el foro de Barcino. Pero lo curioso es que no están al aire libre, sino en el patio interior de un palacio renacentista. Se encuentran en un recodo de la calle Paradís, situada justo detrás del ábside de la catedral, en un edificio que en la actualidad es la sede de Centro Excursionista de Catalunya. El lugar en el que se encuentra creo que era el antiguo lavadero de la propiedad. El caso es que las columnas y parte de la base que se conservan, fueron literalmente engullidas por el edificio que se construyó alrededor. El acceso es libre y hay unos paneles explicativos que explican sus azarosa historia como uno de los restos más representativos y menos conocidos del pasado de Barcelona.

This little corner of Barcelona is one of the least known of all the city, despite its historical importance and its originality. In short: They are the remains of the ancient Roman temple dedicated to Caesar Augustus in what was the forum of Barcino. But the funny thing is that they are not outdoors, but in the inner courtyard of a Renaissance palace. They are in a corner of the street Paradis, located just behind the apse of the cathedral, in a building that is now the seat of Centre Excursionista de Catalunya. The place that is I think it was the old laundry of the property. The fact is that the columns of the base and preserved, were literally swallowed by the building that was built around. Access is free and there are information panels explaining its eventful history as one of the most representative and less known past of Barcelona remains.

Recién llegada a Barcelona, una de mis compañeras de piso me llevó a conocer este rincón, realmente escondido de Barcelona. Cuando lo conocí, el patio desde donde se visualiza no tenía ningún encanto; hoy esta acondicionado para informar al visitante a través de páneles y fotografías su historia. El lugar impacta, más a sabiendas que duró oculto al público por muchas décadas y que afortunadamente no fue derruido para implantar obra nueva, la que hoy envuelve fuera de escala semejante ruina histórica.

Mas também é o lugar com mais peso histórico, relacionado com o tempo de Barcino (a Barcelon Romana). Está no Centro excursionista de Barcelona, e conserva parte do templo romano de Augusto. Outra curiosidade, é que na porta da entrada podem ver um escudo, que marca o lugar mais alto da cidade romana, é interessante, e vale muito a pena ver. Boa busca, Felipe Alves
