Thursday Doors.

Linking up at Norm's Thursday Doors.



Looking through my drafts folder and came across this.

This looks just like any old door you might find in the Gothic Quarter...but take a look inside! I found the inside when I googled the name Palau Moxo - 1770.


Moxó Palace. Built under the leadership of Francisco Mestres, the Cathedral's master builder, in the middle of the Gothic district, close to the Palace of the Generalitat and City Hall, and yet hidden among the stone-paved alleys, this historical Palau has belonged to the Moxó family since its construction in 1770. And so, having miraculously survived the Spanish Civil War, conserves as none other all the furniture and original structures.
