Palau Reial Major (Grand Royal Palace) in Placa del rei (King's Square) Gothic quarter, Barcelona, Spain. In the Middle Ages, Barcelona became the Ciutat Comtal (Count’s City) and its political importance increased. It became the seat of the main political institutions in Old Catalonia and that favoured the development of trade which, in turn, led to the city’s growth and expansion, and the construction of some magnificent Gothic-style buildings.
