Jardins de Massana

Favorites

Jardins de Massana are a vestige of a city-garden project. Built inside a block of houses, they offer an oasis of tranquility in the heart of the neighbourhood.

Urban spaces

Located inside the Can Massana block of flats, these gardens were created in 1953 for the Eucharistic Congress in Barcelona. These gardens were part of an innovative urban garden project, unusual for the time. They consist of a cross, a central square and two side squares. The central square had previously been a football pitch for the local team, Club Deportivo Viviendas del Congreso, created in 1957, until 1983. The pitch disappeared to make way for the Jardins de Massana, divided into two sections by a trellis that crosses from east to west.
