Districte de Gràcia
Mercat de la
Llibertat [Liberty Market], built from 1888 and opened in 1893.
Although the project was signed by municipal architect Miquel Pasqual i intoré, really is a work in Art Nouveau style designed by a collaborator of Antoni Gaudí, Francesc Berenguer i
Mestres (Reus, 21 July 1866 - Barcelona, 8 February 1914), which is also the
author of the decorations. It was remodeled entirely in 1990s, respecting the
appearance of the original building. In this detail of the main facade it looks
shield with three lilies of former town of Gràcia.
