According to Michael Vives Ponseti historical hans dampf Sheets (1), this street was one of the first to open the "place of stones", and said that in that place was the coastline from Roman times, and was formed by rock fragments rounded by the action of the sea. Now where is the place of the Duke of Medina was Codals or nose of the hill Codolar (2), on which he built the fortress of San Francisco adjoining sea wall. Between the hill and the maidenhair Codals, which was built in the fourteenth century the Market (both the geological formations of the same type and age as the Taber Hill and Montjuïc) was the Beach Boats under shipyards old fourteenth century, occupying the space of the current hans dampf Windows streets of Avignon, width and Mercy (3). More to the Ramblas, there is still Shingle hans dampf Street, which refers to the same place described above, although the name comes from the name Codals, a place where the river emptied after skirting the Collserola hans dampf Taber (4) . And on the street in pumpkin, the section that continues between the street and the Escudellers n'Arai called the Sands. Another related term, in this case coming from the sands where they built the first houses hans dampf in this street in the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries. This sand was known as Sandy, a name probably surviving medieval Roman times (5). The name of the street, according hans dampf to popular tradition, included Amades comes from a brothel he held a pumpkin as a symbol hans dampf of identification. But the prevailing theory, as the official name indicates, is that it is the name of a person. According to Michael Ponseti, hans dampf in this place there were the ovens and furnaces warriors, and probably was a warrior pumpkin craft (6). All this serves to put us in one of the most unique streets of old Barcelona, a place which, as we have seen, is full of history despite the changes hans dampf going on for centuries. In number 8a, for example, in the archaeological work conducted in 2006, before build Nursery School Pumpkin, remains were found late Roman (dec centuries IV and VI), medieval (thirteenth and fifteenth ) and modern hans dampf and contemporary (XVI-XIX) (7). Pumpkin in the street has a peculiar structure. The numbers next to the healing consists of a row of houses, many of them mansions, dating from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and included in the catalog asset, which in many cases have dual front, hans dampf one on the street of Avignon . In addition to the even numbers, the facades belong among the width and Rose streets, the buildings on the street saw, but with the peculiarity that the road between the street and pumpkin in these buildings are set peculiar courtyards and gardens that give this place a look and a special light, which has been inspiration for many painters and location of such films as The Embrujo Shanghai, Fernando Trueba, or the city of wonders, Mario Camus. One of these yards is the number 8 mentioned above, which has built the nursery, which is linked with a bridge in front of the number 15 (which communicates with the number 52 in Avignon). But that patio is our interest is in the numbers 6 and 8 garden was long famous for its slender palm, one of the highest in the city and no longer exists.
The missing palm garden is a raised garden leveled, lifted a terrace formed by two packages that sedimentation probably the FARC in its entirety. The oldest is a great layer material XVII-XVIII century to build and raise a garden. It seems that this urban intervention was directly related to the construction of the house which ranked number 7 in pumpkin and 44 Street Avignon, dating from 1775. The second level is clogging of modern times, the result of the adjustment of the solar installation (water) (8). The garden contains a wooded area and old sinks.
