Tradicionalment, a Catalunya la diada de Sant Jordi és el dia dels enamorats, i és costum que les parelles es regalin una rosa i un llibre. La presència del llibre és deguda a que la diada coincideix amb el Dia internacional del llibre, que des de 1930 commemora la mort de Miguel de Cervantes. La diada té un caire reivindicatiu de la cultura catalana i molts balcons s'engalanen amb la senyera.
A tot Barcelona es venen llibres i roses, però és a La Rambla on l'esdeveniment arriba a la seva màxima expressió. A les parades habituals de La Rambla se n'afegeixen de temporals. És tradicional promoure la venda de llibres amb signatures dels autors i fent un descompte al preu de venda. Les llibreries properes a Plaça Catalunya estan plenes de gom a gom i obren fins i tot si es diumenge. Quant a les roses es transformen en un negoci del que tothom se n'aprofita. Hi ha parades amb reivindicacions polítiques, per ajudar a organitzacions humanitàries, per recaptar fons per escoles o simplement per a aconseguir alguns diners extra. Els mitjans de comunicació fan retransmissions en directe des dels punts més emblemàtics. Però sobre tot cal destacar l'ambient festiu que genera la diada. Es realitzen activitats a les biblioteques i concerts als carrers que s'afegeixen a l'atrafegada agenda cultural de la ciutat comtal.

Barcelona is also the capital of the Spanish province of Catalonia. St George is the patron saint of Catalonia.
Come to Barcelona on the 23rd of April and join in the transformation of Barcelona into a town of celebration.
Although this is not a national holiday, the crowded streets and the bustle of rose and book-buying and carrying give a happy party atmosphere. Of course, clement warm weather helps too.
Everywhere there are stalls selling single, dragon’s blood red, roses, decorated with the red and yellow Catalan colours, or the stalls sell books, or both. The streets, metro stations, even the roof top of a Gaudi house open to the public have a stall, or sometimes a couple of students, selling roses or books. The bookstalls alone number over three hundred.
About 2,000,000 books are sold on the day of Sant Jordi and some 3,500,000 roses. Japan now imitates this ‘Catalan Day of the Book and the Rose’.
On the front of the buses flutter flags, of red and yellow stripes for Catalonia and white with a red cross for St George, or his Catalan name, Sant Jordi (San Jorge is in Spanish).
But why this sudden fever for books and roses? In Catalonia, whose capital is Barcelona, on St George’s Day, gifts are exchanged between sweethearts - a rose to the woman, a book to the man. This day is also called “the Day of Lovers”.
The roses are given in memory of St Jordi, who rescued a princess from the dragon he slew. The blood spilt from the dragon grew into a rose that Jordi gave to the rescued princess, a symbol of love and friendship, or at least so they tell me. Books started being given on St Jordi’s day from 1923 when a Barcelona bookseller started the custom to help sell books, using as a hook the death date of two famous great writers on 23rd April 1616: Spain’s Miguel Cervantes, author of Don Quixote, and England’s William Shakespeare.
23rd April has also been designated International Book Day by UNESCO.
It is estimated that 6 million roses and 400,000 books (half Catalonia’s yearly book sales) are sold in Barcelona on St George’s Day. Note that devoted sons may buy their mother a pot of orchids or other flowers instead.

Tradicionalmente en Cataluña la Diada de Sant Jordi como es conocido este día allí, es el día de los enamorados, en el cual las personas intercambian y regalan rosas y libros a su pareja y personas queridas. Se cree que la tradición de regalar en esta fecha una rosa a la mujer amada se remonta probablemente hasta el siglo XV. Algunas versiones hacen coincidir esta práctica con la Feria de las rosas o de los enamorados que tenía lugar en Barcelona durante el verano.
Es un hecho constatado que en aquella época ya se repartían rosas a las mujeres que asistían a la misa oficiada en la capilla de San Jorge del Palacio de la Generalidad de Cataluña en esta fecha. La rosa va acompañada de una senyera y una espiga de trigo. El color rojo de la rosa simboliza la pasión, la senyera al patrón de Cataluña y la espiga de trigo representa la fertilidad.
El Día de Sant Jordi tiene un aspecto reinvindicativo de la cultura catalana y muchos balcones lucen la bandera autónoma, la senyera. En toda Cataluña se venden cromos y llaveros llegando a su máxima expresión en las Ramblas, donde a los puestos habituales se añaden temporales. Es tradicional promover la venta de libros con firmas de los autores y un descuento al precio de venta. Normalmente también se realizan actividades en las bibliotecas y conciertos en las calles que se añaden a la agenda cultural de la ciudad condal.

Edifici històric.
Arquitecte Elies Rogent, 1863-1872
Any de Construcció: 1863-1872
Adreça: Av. Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes, 585
Edifici exempt que ocupa pràcticament les dues illes de l’Eixample, envoltat d’un jardí interessant tant per la concepció com per les espècies que conté. Organitzat a partir d’una planta en forma de U, col·locada inicialment al centre les dependències representatives i a cada un dels extrems les facultats de ciències i de lletres. Les dues torres quadrades, resoltes quasi com campanars, que coronen els extrems de la façana ajuden a donar la idea de “temple laic” que té l’edifici.
Universitat de Barcelona, institució:
Els seus orígens resideixen en l'Estudi de Medicina que Martí I l'Humà volgué atorgar a la ciutat en 1401, sense el beneplàcit del Consell de Cent, que creia envaïdes les seves competències; igualment, l'Estudi General de Lleida va protestar, ja que això trencaria el seu virtual monopoli de l'ensenyament superior a la Corona d'Aragó. Mig segle després , el 1450, el rei Alfons el Magnànim va fundar l'Estudi General de Barcelona, és a dir, l'actual universitat. Incorporà algunes institucions d'ensenyament existents, com l'escola de la Catedral o les escoles municipals. Per això, la universitat va tenir, al contrari que d'altres, un marcat caràcter municipal, amb poc control per part de la corona.
Les classes s'impartien a diferents llocs: la catedral, el convent dels franciscans i el dels dominicans. La primera seu pròpia va ser un edifici construït a la part superior de la Rambla, a tocar de la muralla (a Canaletes, tocant la Plaça de Catalunya i el portal de Santa Anna), inaugurat el 1536.
La Universitat de Barcelona va ser suprimida el 1715, juntament amb totes les universitats catalanes (Tarragona, Girona, Solsona, Vic i Lleida): en virtut del Decret de Nova Planta, totes les universitats del país van desaparèixer per a formar-ne una de nova amb seu a Cervera (la Segarra). El motiu del trasllat a Cervera va ser que com a recompensa del suport dels cerverins cap a Felip d'Anjou en la Guerra de Successió, aquests van demanar tenir a la ciutat drets portuaris. Felip V va desestimar aquesta petició, però a canvi va concedir moure instal·lar a Cervera l'única universitat que hi hauria a Catalunya durant uns 150 anys, fins que va retornar a Barcelona altra vegada al segle XIX. Allí van formar-se, per exemple, Jaume Balmes o Josep Finestres.
Article principal: Universitat de Cervera
El 1837 va començar de nou el trasllat de la universitat: la de Cervera va ser suprimida i es va acordar que la universitat tornés a Barcelona. El trasllat va durar cinc anys, acabant el 1842. La Universitat de Barcelona, ja amb aquest nom, va ser llavors l'única universitat en funcionament a Catalunya.
El curs 1838-1839 comença a funcionar a Barcelona, on ocupà primer l'antic convent dels carmelites (al carrer del Carme, a l'alçada del carrer del Doctor Dou). La situació de l'edifici, en mal estat de conservació després dels avalots de 1835, aconsellava la construcció d'una nova seu. Elies Rogent va rebre'n l'encàrrec, començant les obres el 1863 i acabant-se en 1882. Era un edifici de nova construcció a l'Eixample, però a tocar de la ciutat antiga; actualment és conegut com a Edifici Històric). S'hi feien totes les classes, llevat de les de medicina, que es donaven a l'Hospital de la Santa Creu i, des del 1905, a l'Hospital Clínic.

Universitat de Barcelona (Barcelona's university)
Edifici històric (historical building).

Year of construction: 1863-1872

University of Barcelona, institution:
The University was founded under the royal prerogative granted by Alfonso V of Aragon, in Naples, on 3 November 1450. For forty-nine years prior to this, however, the city had had a fledgling medical school (or Estudi General, as the universities were known at that time), founded by King Martin of Aragon, but neither the Consell de Cent (Barcelona's Council of One Hundred) nor the city’s other leading institutions had given it their official recognition, considering it an intrusion on their respective jurisdictions. Alphonse the Magnanimous’ prerogative, though, was granted at the petition of the Consell de Cent, and so the council was always to consider the Estudi General created in 1450 as the city’s true university, since it was very much under its control and patronage.
The process that culminated in the foundation of the Estudi General of Barcelona can be traced back to the end of the fourteenth century, with the opening of a number of schools under the patronage of the City Hall, the cathedral schools and the Dominican convent of Santa Caterina, which established itself as a major cultural centre.
It was King Martín the Humane who set in motion the process that would result in the foundation of the University of Barcelona. In his letter written 23 January 1398 and addressed to the councillors of Barcelona, he informed them that he had sought the Pope’s permission to found a university in the city by Juan Carlos IX
Despite the Consell de Cent's refusal to accept the concession issued by the King to found an estudi general, on 10 January 1401, Martín founded the Estudi General of Medicine in Barcelona under his royal prerogative, granting it the same privileges as those enjoyed by the University of Montpellier.
In another document, signed in Valencia on 9 May 1402, King Martin sought to promote the Estudi General of Medicine with the appointment of a number of teachers of the liberal arts, without which the study of medicine was virtually useless. From that day forth, the Estudi was known as the Estudi of Medicine and the Arts.
The prerogative granted by King Alphonse the Magnanimous in 1450, authorizing the Consell de Cent to found a university in Barcelona, was the culmination of the process initiated in 1398.
The first university in the lands of the Crown of Aragon was founded by king James II of Aragon in Lleida in 1300.
Power and learning have always gone hand in hand. So much so that the discussions concerning the foundation of the first universities were characterized by the clear delimitation of jurisdictional authority. After 1229, and following a series of bloody encounters in Paris that saw grave confrontations between the agents of the university provost and the students, King Philip II of Spain granted full judicial authority to the university chancellor or rector within the university grounds. Henceforth, the authority of the chancellor came to be symbolized in the maces carried by his two beadles on official occasions. The maces were capped with gold or silver and were borne by public servants during official acts before the king or any other civil or military authority with jurisdiction over a territory, municipality or region.
For a number of reasons, in particular the civil war that raged during the reign of Joan II and the subsequent conflicts involving the peasant farmers, the official Estudi General of Barcelona did not begin to develop until the reign of Fernando the Catholic; but it was under Charles I, in 1536, that the foundation stone was laid for the new university building at the top end of La Rambla. From that moment on the university began to carry out its work as normal despite financial difficulties and in-fighting between university teachers, though this was not to stop some illustrious professors from making their mark in their respective fields and creating their own schools of academic followers.
The 1596 Ordinances once more showed the need for reform. These followed hard on the heels of earlier Ordinances passed in 1539 and 1559, in which the competitive examination system for the appointment of professors had been introduced.
This period was brought to a close with the Decree issued on 23 October 1714 by the Royal High Commission for Justice and Government of Catalonia - created by the Duke of Berwick - ordering the immediate transfer of the Faculties of Philosophy, Law and Canon Law to Cervera. Barcelona was to keep its Faculty of Medicine and the Cordelles School of Humanities, governed by the Jesuits. Plans to open the University of Cervera did not get underway until 1715 and it did not start its academic work until 1717, as the successor to the six Catalan universities closed down by Felipe V. The first statutes of the new University of Cervera were passed in 1725.
"The University of Barcelona was closed by the Bourbon dynasty after the War of the Spanish Succession from 1714 until 1837".[1] The university was restored to Barcelona during the liberal revolution during the reign of Isabel II. In 1837, the University of Cervera was transferred to Barcelona, the capital of the principality. From that moment forth it was recognized as the cultural home of the four Catalan provinces.
On its return the University was housed initially in the Convent of Carme, which had been disestablished a few years earlier. Here the Faculties of Canon Law, Law and Theology were provisionally installed. The Faculty of Medicine took up residence in the Royal Academy of Medicine, next door to the Hospital of Santa Creu i Sant Pau. Thus, all the Faculties were now located in just two streets - carrer Hospital and carrer del Carme.
The inadequate nature of these premises soon gave rise to the need to construct a larger home for the University, and in 1863 work began on Elies Rogent's splendid new building, though it would not be fully completed until 1882. Its construction was to have major repercussions for the city, since it was one of the first buildings to be raised outside the ancient city walls.
Work on the building lasted for more than twenty years, although by 1871 the first lectures were being given there. The clock and the iron bell housed in the tower in the Pati de Lletres— the "Patio of the Arts"— were installed in 1881. Complementing the building work, sculptures and paintings were commissioned either directly from artists of repute or awarded in open competition.
The architectural work and the quality of the building's works of art meant that the historic building was declared a national monument of historic and artistic interest in 1970.

Universidad de Barcelona, institución:
Los orígenes de la UB se remontan a la época de Martín I, el humano, el cual quiso otorgar a Barcelona El estudio de la medicina. Delante de esta situación, la organización del Consejo de ciento se negó.
En época de Alfonso, el magnánimo la UB se inauguró en 1450 por una bula otorgada previamente por el Papa. Tres siglos más tarde, en el siglo XVIII, la sede fue trasladada a Cervera (Lérida) en agradecimiento a los habitantes por dar apoyo a Felipe de Anjou durante la Guerra de Sucesión Española.
En 1842 la sede volvió a Barcelona ocupando unos antiguos palacios de la calle del Carme y más tarde un edificio nuevo en l'Eixample construido por Elies Rogent. 90 años más tarde, el gobierno de la Primera República otorgó a la UB autonomía propia, pasándose a llamar Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona (no confundirse con la actual UAB). Pero con la llegada de la dictadura de Franco, la autonomía fue derogada en 1939, entrando en una época de decadencia: gran parte del profesorado fue sustituido por docentes acordes al nuevo régimen que terminó con un periodo de crisis intelectual.
La UB fue la única universidad de Cataluña y las Islas Baleares existente hasta 1968, cuando se inició un proceso que duró hasta la década de los 90 que originó el resto de universidades catalanas y la Universidad de las Islas Baleares. Paralelamente, la propia UB inició un proyecto de expansión, creando diferentes facultades por todo el territorio barcelonés: el campus de Pedralbes, de Sants, de Bellvitge y Mundet.

We begin the tour by the famous Paseo de Gracia. This street use to be the home of the wealthiest Catalan families in the beginning of the XX century. Nowadays, it represent still the major part of architectural and cultural legacy of the city.
Paseo de Gracia Avenue divide L´Eixample in 2 parts: right hand (dreta) and left hand(esquerra).
As you pedal, you will discover between the trees the famous Pere Falqués floor lamps,recognizable for its unique white mosaic. And if you look at your feets, you will see thehexagonal tiles, shape created by the genius Gaudí.
Follow the Avenue, you will get to see la casa Pons i Pascual, la casa Rocanova, la casa Lleó i Morera, la casa Amatller, la casa Batlló, la casa Viuda de Marfà, la Pedrera o Casa Milà y la casa Fuster… These are few of the many artistic and architectonic jewels of the Condal city.
At the height of Aragó street, you should have a detour to see la Fundación Antoni Tàpies,famous architectural work of Domènech i Montaner, two of the most important architects of the city.
