Santa Maria Del Mar and the Guilds
On February 20th we went on a field study to the the Ribera Quarter where all of the guilds of Barcelona were located. The guilds were the system in which people would train to be skilled professionals in certain areas of expertise. These included being a craftsman, ironworker and stone mason etc. These guild were also to govern how items would be priced, how workers would act, and what qualified them to do their job.

| Placa de Llana "The Plaza of Wool"Each street in the quarter had a specific craft made or service provided. Placa de la llana made wool, carrer de corders made rope, carrer de cotoners was where the clothing was made and Carrer del rec was where water was supplied. |
