Placa de Sant Jaume is often used for festivals and procession - and also for demonstrations. Plaça de Sant Jaume is located on the ancient site of the Roman forum in Roman town called Barcino which later became Barcelona. In Roman times this plaza was the city center and was on the junction of the Roman citys main streets Cardo Maximus and Decumanus Maximus. Barcino's four city gates were at the end of these two streets which today are called Carrer Ciutat / Carrer del Bisbe ( = Decumanus Maximus) and Carrer Llibreteria (= Cardo Maximus). Barcino was a small city but even today there are impressive remnants of Barcelona Roman city walls in the gothic area. Plaça de Sant Jaume houses two government buildings.
