Restaurant and bars facilites are located on the top floor. Encants Bellcaire Flea Market, Barcelona, Spain. Architect: b720 Fer


The old Encantes Barcelona or Fira Bellcaire is one of the oldest markets in Europe. Certain references date its origin in the fourteenth century, being a witness over commercial dynamism of our city. Popularly known as the Old Encantes, is more than just an antique market and peddling, orienting its centennial activity and apparent tentativeness to current demand, making alternative offers of trading available. The new Encants market is installed as a device to mediate between the reform of the Plaza de las Glorias and the axis of Meridiana, an area popularly known as les Glories de Bosquet. The proposal raises a platform (or commercial square) at various levels as a continuous surface suitable for all commercial activities. By bending the platform, the different levels of the street are reconciled, understanding the market as a large square deck, capable of instilling activity in all parts of the program.
