The town of Sant Joan Despí has a route for visits to the work of the man who was its most prestigious municipal architect for over twenty years: Josep Maria Jujol (Tarragona 1879 – Barcelona 1949).
This route, which allows the visitor to admire the Modernista heritage of the municipality, proposes a visit to the fascinating works of this style that are to be seen here.
The itinerary includes a visit to Can Negre, the Parish Church, the villas Torre de la Creu, Cal Passani, Torre Jujol and Torre Serra-Xaus, the façade of Can Rovira, Casa Joan Manadé and the doorway of the workshop of the locksmith Josep Oliver. In each of these structures one observes Jujol’s renovating spirit in each of these structures, where space and matter are transformed to create an almost magical world.
