Medieval Route
During the second half of the 12th century, the situation of Vilafranca as a road that linked Christian and Moorish lands was decisive for its development. An era where the coincidence of religious celebrations with fairs and markets as inseparable activities and the royal graning of notarial rights led to the Church of Vilafranca exercising notable economic and legal power.
Two of the buildings from this era with the most historical weight are the Royal Palace, where the king Pere III the Great, the Palau Baltà, which tradition says was the setting for the signing of the Capitulation of Vilafranca in 1461, one of the triggers of the civil war that saw the crown and the Generalitat clash in the 15th century.
