It is formed by the old villages of Sarrià (added to Barcelona in 1927), Vallvidrera (added to Sarrià in 1890), Santa Creu d'Olorda (added to Sarrià in 1916) and Sant Gervasi (Saint Gervasius) de Cassoles (added to Barcelona in 1897). The first written document found about old Sarrià village dates from the year 987, and the origins are from a Roman colony.The Sant Gervasi-Galvany Neighborhood, in the Sarria-Sant Gervasi District, refers to one of the parts of the former municipality of Sant Gervasi de Cassoles before it was annexed to Barcelona, and to the Camp d'en Galvany, urbanization that was promoted in 1866 by its owner, Joseph Galvany Castelló. The name Galvany became popular in the wake that the fresh food market in the area took the name of Galvany and became very well known for the quality products that were offered, located in the heart of the neighborhood in between streets Santaló, Calaf, Amigó and Madrazo, the project of the market, on land leased by the Earl of Galvany, was started in 1868, but the opening of the actual building, listed as an artistic monument, was delayed until the final 1927.Of the Sarria-Sant Gervasi neighborhoods it is the closest to the Eixample District having the Diagonal Avenue as the limit and to the Gracia District with the limit in the Via Augusta Street. It is mainly a residential area with a mainly bourgeois upper class social extraction, fancy shopping areas and it is also well known for the great nightlife with large quantities of nice bars, several restaurants of different types, from simple classic ones to elegant design and expensive ones, and also for the nightclubs especially in Santalo street and the adjacent area.With a nearby Subway stop of the FGC in Via Augusta/Santalo that takes you to Ciutat Vella district/Plaça Catalunya stop in 6 minutes, with connections to Metro lines L3 and L5 in Provença stop, with also several normal bus lines close by and a Tourist Bus stop at walking distance in Francesc Macia Square/Diagonal Avenue.
