We did this on a combo ticket tourist thing and it's currently not really worth visiting. So much is covered with tarps and cloths that it was hard to find the features that were being pointed out in the audio program. The last station #12 was the most interesting cause it actually referenced the scaffolding that was in place and some of the problems they have had with renovating that one little chapel. I'd suggest the whole program would be more interesting if it was geared to the renovation. I saw some good pictures of the bells pre renovation here on Google. Why did they change the structure that the bell hangs from? We'll never know, but that sort of thing would be interesting.

Church is under repair. While it is part of combination ticket of 12€, the church of itself is currently not worth a visit. Audio guide is included but takes too long.

If you go to the market, let me rephrase that, after you go to the market pop outside and take a look at this amazing church. Such craftsmanship and artwork into these buildings. Please post tribute to them. So cool. So. So. Cool. It is under renovation so please be mindful. But enjoy the exterior. Interior entrance was under some scaffolding but we did not go in.

The Englesia de Sant Joan del Mercat is a Gothic church with a Baroque reconstruction. next to the Central Market and Silk Exchange It was originally a Gothic building, but due to the reconstructions after the fires, it has Baroque features. The exterior of the church is beautifully decorated with many details.

Well, I don’t think it is a good time to visit this church as it’s under restoration now. The staff told me it wouldn’t be ready until 2025/2026. If you want to go and have a look anyway, I advise you go at 14:00 because the restoration staff pause their work at that time. Then you’d visit it at least without much noise. Otherwise it would be pretty annoying to walk around the church with audio guide in your ears but cannot hear anything from it. The staff are super friendly btw. I just don’t like the idea that we have to pay for the entrance when it’s not ready for visit.
