The Roman Wall of Barcelona, recognised as a National Cultural Heritage site, represents a significant piece of the city's ancient history, dating from the 3rd to 4th centuries AD. This well-maintained structure has an elongated octagonal form, with towers that once soared to 18 metres. Visitors can examine parts of the wall near Plaça Nova and discover remnants of ancient architecture and sculptures at the Museu d'Història de la Ciutat. The site reflects Barcelona's historical importance as the Roman city of Bàrcino. Admission is typically free, though guided tour fees may apply. Accessibility is mostly good, with paths accommodating all visitors.
