Time Out says

The old Born market has reopened as a cultural centre. Inside the iron and glass structure built by Josep Fontserè in 1876 – it was the first market in town constructed in the fashion of the architecture of Paris – are preserved archaeological remains from 1700 of the district of Vilanova de Mar. You can walk around this area and visit the 'De les pedres a les persones' ('From Stones to People') exhibition and archaeological sites (by reservation only). These are the main attractions of this centre that aims to show how life in the city was before and after the siege of 1713-1714 and also offers activities associated with the celebration of the tricentennial.
