The Torribera Complex stands as an urban fossil, a brutalist architectural maze whispering forgotten tales. Traverse its walls, uncover its uninhabited spaces, and connect with the memory etched into the concrete. An immersion into Barcelona's rawest, least visible side.
The Planns tip
Look for the access sign via the old service car park.

The venue
La Mina Grott
La Mina Grott: Water legacy, route of the first electric train.
On Camí del Cama-sec 22 in Vallvidrera, La Mina Grott is a testament to engineering and transport. Erected in 1855, this nearly 1.5-kilometer tunnel initially channeled water from the Vallvidrera reservoir to Sarrià. By 1908, its role evolved, housing Spain's first electric passenger train – a pioneering link to the Collserola landscapes. Active until 1916, this service set a precedent for urban mobility. Today, La Mina Grott's discreet access in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi continues its hydraulic work, an enduring symbol of innovation and heritage.
