Plaça del Mig del Món

Juncosa

Plaça del Mig del Món

Presiding over the district of the castle is the Plaça del Mig del Món. The name literally translates as the Middle of the Universe. The central monument sets the stage for the popular saying that Juncosa is in the middle of the world. Because as there's a dimple in a part of the street under the arcade in Plaça de l'Església, it proves the fact that God has first stuck the sharp point of the compass here to draw the earth.
