Hill with a history, Montjuïc dominates the Barcelona skyline and makes for splendid views over the city.
When you have seen most of the sights of Barcelona, it is nice to have a view over the city. Actually, this is easy to do. I took a subway to Plaza de España and then walked up and around the hill that dominates the Barcelona skyline. This is a hill with a history; in earlier times, whomever possessed this hill, was also master of the city. Also in Franco's times, the castle on the hill was used for political purposes. The hill is topped by a castle, which has been built on the remains of a Jewish cemetery. hence the name: Montjuïc literally means Jewish Mount.
