Fabra i Coats
From thread to art: Fabra i Coats' constant evolution.
Fabra i Coats, a former textile factory in Sant Andreu, is a tangible testament to Barcelona's 19th-century industrialization. Its imposing halls, once home to yarn production, now form a dynamic cultural hub. The original architecture, featuring high ceilings and exposed brick, has been carefully restored to foster research, production, and dissemination of contemporary art. This versatile space, a neighbourhood landmark, hosts everything from visual arts to music, setting a creative pulse in the urban fabric.
