urban territorial boundaries. Built in Gothic style

1948.

A street opened in 1499 that connected the town of
Pineda with the beach to promote sea transport for
people and goods. Up until the 19th century only the two
ends of the street were urbanised and the centre was
left for crops. The bottom of the street, which was
the fishermen’s quarter, was known as Raval de Mar.

Fishermen’s Kitchen-Houses - Raval de Mar
Fishermen’s houses with the kitchen on the ground
floor, bedroom on the first floor, and two courtyards,

allowed the house to be extended to the street if there
was money to do so. This part of the Carrer de Mar,
known as Raval de Mar, was built up after the mid-18th
century when the pirates were no longer a danger for
the townspeople.
