Guided tour: 'The air raid shelter at La Garriga station'

More than 100 meters of underground galleries drilled into the rock, witnessing the collective work of an entire town to face the threat of fascist bombings that the Garriga suffered during the Spanish Civil War.

Located right next to the train station, the station's air raid shelter is the first shelter converted into a museum in Catalonia. It is an exceptionally well-preserved shelter, excavated directly into the granite rock, with more than 110 meters of galleries.

The shelter was built by the Garriga neighborhood in 1938, under the orders of the local Passive Defense Board and served to protect the population from air attacks, especially when Franco's bombs fatally hit the municipality on January 29. of 1939.
