The Poble Espanyol, (or Spanish Village in English), was built in 1929 for Barcelona’s International Exhibition as a pavilion dedicated to art. It’s located on the Montjuīc Area, pretty close at the beautiful building of Mies van de Rohe, built for the same Exhibition.
It is one of the few surviving landmarks from a world fair that is still open as a visitor attraction. The first curiosity of this group of buildings is that since its construction
had as its final destination, its demolition.
The great success of visitors, made the government change its idea.
The Spanish Village is an open-air architecture museum and features replicas of 117 buildings, streets and squares from around Spain. Declarated an Area of Craft Interest, it is
home to 40 crafts worshops where you can see artworks being created in situ.
The Spanish Village is also home to the Fran Daurel Foundation,
the Sculpture Garden and a monumental sculpture by Josep Guinovart.
It also has a wide range of shops and restaurants.
The second curiosity is that during the Spanish Civil War, it was used as a prison camp.
