La Porxada, Renaissance market building in Granollers, Spain.
The stone structure features fifteen columns supporting a wooden four-sided roof, forming a rectangular base near the Town Hall of Granollers.
Built between 1586 and 1587 by master builder Bartomeu Brufalt, the building served as a shelter for agricultural markets in the region.
The building stands as a testament to the economic and social strength of Catalonia, receiving national recognition as a Cultural Asset of National Interest.
Located in the former Blat Square, now Porxada Square, the building remains a central meeting point for residents and visitors in Granollers.
The structure underwent restoration in 1985 following partial destruction during the Spanish Civil War, maintaining its original Renaissance characteristics.
