This square is located at the end of Carrer Escudellers, in the middle of the Mercé neighborhood. For quite some time now, the entire old town has been going through a lot of renovations and improvements, and these include the "cleaning up" of this area. This area is now a popular place for young people who come to hang out at the many cafés and restaurants found both here and on Escudellers. What was once considered a rather grungy area has changed radically, although it still has a rather alternative feel. In the centre of the square stands a sculpture by the surrealist Leandre Cristòfol.
