Plaça del Rei, meaning "King's Square" in Catalan, is a 14th-century medieval public square in the Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter) of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. It is surrounded by the Palau Reial Major, including the Saló del Tinell, the Palau del Lloctinent, the 15th-century Mirador del Rei Martí watchtower, and the Capella Reial de Santa Àgata. On its southern side stands Casa Padellàs, a 15th–16th century palazzo moved stone by stone from Mercaders Street in 1931, which has housed the Barcelona City History Museum since 1943.
