Barri Antic

The Barri Antic is the historic heart of Andorra la Vella, a charming medieval quarter that reveals what the capital was like when it was a small Pyrenean village. This labyrinth of narrow cobbled streets features traditional stone houses, small shady squares, and ancient fountains. Dating back to the 13th century, it houses landmarks like the Casa de la Vall and the Romanesque Church of Sant Esteve. Today, over 40 restaurants and many boutique shops make it a vibrant area perfect for exploring Andorras heritage.
