Discover ancient treasures in La Bisbal

revel in old splendor

La Bisbal d’Empordà is also known for its many antique shops. Here you can indulge endlessly in old splendor and discover many a rarity. Our bathroom now adorns the copy of an old castle bathtub. Someone had this specially made in one of the workshops in the town to forget them afterwards. Now I look forward to the magnificent specimen in my bathroom every morning. I can also indulge my preference for wrought iron fences and balcony parapets as well as glasses and porcelain here. Even if you don’t always go home with real loot, you are guaranteed to be inspired for new decorations in the house, yard or garden.
