THE MODEL PRISON

This prison, located in the Eixample district, closed its doors in 2017, 113 years after its inauguration. This place, a symbol of social and political repression in Barcelona, will host different public services, including a memorial space. During the works, a series of explanatory panels reveal the history of this site through photographs and documents that we found in the archives and texts written by our team.
