Abstract (english)
The sandstone known as Montjuïc stone has been used throughout history in the city of Barcelona. However, it was during the Roman period that the quarries were extended considerably to supply the stone needed to build the city and its walls, as well as to use for its cultural manifestations (architecture, epigraphy, sculpture, etc.). Montjuïc stone is an easily recognisable sandstone with properties that make it suitable for a wide range of uses. The two varieties used for building, blanquet and rebuig, have very similar properties and can be distinguished mainly by their colouring (light grey in the case of blanquet and reddish ochre for rebuig).
