Mercat Gòtic
The Mercat Gòtic or Gothic Market, which is held in front of Barcelona Cathedral, is an antique and second-hand market that has existed for many years. Its opening hours vary greatly from month to month, but it is normally open every Thursday from 9am to 8pm. It is highly recommended to check the official website (only in Catalan).
On the square in front of the Cathedral, a Gotique market for lovers of vintage objects
This market, which has been in existence for some forty years, is located in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, which is one of the oldest and most historic areas of the city. It is located in front of Barcelona Cathedral.
The Mercat Gòtic is a popular attraction for locals and tourists who like to bargain for a little souvenir. Among the 28 exhibitors, there are some antique shops and specialised stands such as the one for old cameras. There are old books and newspapers, postcards, silverware, antique jewellery, clocks and watches, toys, dolls, old records, collectibles and vintages. Of course it has nothing to do with the Encants market , but it is a small distraction on your way through this historic district of Barcelona.

a bit touristy but good stuff for amateur - sandyBG (17 Sep 2023 - 10:44)
A must-see market in front of Barcelona Cathedral. Of course, it's a bit touristy, but as always, if you look hard enough you'll find some pretty good stuff... in short, it's worth stopping for 5 minutes.

Ripped me off on that CHIPPED enamel pin badge for €10 when it was only worth €3 at most. I will be back this year in November
