Discover the history of the city of Barcelona from the first human settlements until it became the modern city it is presently.
Madrid became the centre of political power whilst the colonization of the Americas reduced the financial importance (at least in relative terms) of Mediterranean trade. Barcelona was a centre of Catalan separatism, including the Catalan Revolt (1640–52) against Philip IV of Spain.
La historia de Barcelona se extiende a lo largo de 4000 años, desde finales del Neolítico, con los primeros restos hallados en el territorio de la ciudad, hasta la actualidad. El sustrato de sus habitantes aúna a los pueblos iberos, romanos, judíos, visigodos, musulmanes y cristianos.
