¡Hola a tod@s!
Join us for an unforgettable experience as we explore the hidden stories of Montjuic Mountain.
Immerse yourself in a pleasant stroll along the mountain, where you will be captivated by breathtaking views of the entire city. But that's not all - we will also shed light on a social reality that has been disregarded and ignored for decades: the lives of thousands of people who lived in BARRACAS (shanty towns) from the 19th century until the Barcelona Olympics in 1992, enduring extremely challenging conditions.
Instead of stigmatizing the barraquistas, we will highlight the hardships they faced in their daily lives and their crucial contribution as cheap labor to the city's successful economic development.
The barraquismo phenomenon also extended to other parts of the city, giving rise to neighborhoods like Los Cañones, La Perona, El Somorrostro, and more.
In 1957, 100,000 people lived in barracas in Barcelona, with 30,000 of them residing in Montjuïc. This represented nearly 10% of the city's population!
Through this guided tour, we aim to bring their history to light and ensure it remains in our collective memory.
Don't miss out on this opportunity to discover a lesser-known aspect of Barcelona's past.
Price: 12 Eu.
