Interesting Facts About CaixaForum Barcelona

The history of this building, built-in 1912 by the modernist architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch, was very eventful. The textile factory, commissioned by the industrialist Casimir Casaramona, was built with great simplicity, with exposed brick and forged iron from the Can Ballarín workshop.
However, the Casaramona factory closed its doors only seven years after its inauguration since it went bankrupt after the 1919 strike. Later, it served as a warehouse during the Barcelona International Exposition in 1929, and, as of 1940, It was set up as stables and a mobile park area for the National Police. In 1963 ”la Caixa” acquired the building and commissioned its renovation to turn it into a cultural center.
The recovery and rehabilitation works were carried out by the prominent architects Roberto Luna, the main author of the project; Robert Brufau, responsible for structures; Javier Asarta, head of the restoration; and Arata Isozaki, architect of the new patio and main entrance. The building was inaugurated as CaixaForum Barcelona in 2002.
