On Saturday, March 28 at 11 a.m. we invite you to the "La Rambla and Barça" Route.
This route offers a fascinating tour through the deep-and often unknown-links that connect La Rambla with the origins of Futbol Club Barcelona. A walk full of history, curiosities, and mysteries that reveals how this emblematic urban space was both the stage and driving force behind the birth of Barça's passion.
Throughout the route, we will discover the gym where the foundations for the first Barça team were laid; get to know the surprising figure of Valdés, a tobacco vendor and "lottery seller" on La Rambla who was part of the first team; and delve into the enigmatic mystery of the Lottery's safe and its unexpected connection to the Club. We will also explain the origin of the mythical link between the Canaletes Fountain and Barça fans, as well as the key role played by the La Rambla press in allowing supporters to follow the matches almost in real time and celebrate Barça's victories in the street.
A surprising and rigorous tour about the origins of Barça and the intense emotional bond that has united La Rambla and Barça fans for more than a century.
