Episode 59: Barcelona, Spain — History of its Founding and Fortifications
In this episode of "Places People Purposes," we will take you on a captivating journey through the thriving metropolis of Barcelona, Spain, a city cherished by Mom, Sherri, and I. We trace Barcelona's roots back to its Roman foundation as Barcino, highlighting enduring legacies such as defensive walls and the Temple of Augustus. This unfolds through the Carolingian Empire, the Crown of Aragon's medieval splendor, and the 18th-century War of the Spanish Succession, shaping Barcelona's cultural, economic, and political landscape. The 19th century witnessed industrial transformation, while the 20th century oscillates between turmoil and triumph, from the Spanish Civil War to a post-Franco renaissance, ultimately propelling Barcelona into global prominence, notably marked by the 1992 Summer Olympics. Today, Barcelona stands as a symbol of cultural diversity, architectural innovation, and economic vitality.
