Greater Festival of Gràcia quarter-2017

The Major Festival of Gràcia celebrates 200 years with more streets decorated and a great “tent”

Greater Festival of Gràcia quarter-2017

The celebrations of the district of Gràcia celebrate this year a special edition to celebrate the bicentennial of its birth. The most popular festival of the summer of Barcelona will kick off on Monday 14 August – in full bridge – with the proclamation, by the actors Roger de Gràcia and Agnès Busquets, and will continue until the following Monday, 21 .

The 2017 program will have more spaces participating: up to 22 streets and squares will compete in the expected decoration contest, two more than the previous year for the incorporation of the streets Maspons and Jesus. 39 portals and balconies will also be decked out, which also have a competition of their own.

In addition, on the occasion of the anniversary, the party recovers two traditions. On the one hand, Gran de Gràcia street will host activities after almost 50 years outside the program, will be dressed with two access portals and will be cut to traffic on 15, 19 and 20 August. On the other hand, the street Francisco Giner will remember the origin of the party decorating the street with the traditional technique of plant enramades. From this street it is the oldest photograph that is conserved of the parties, dated in 1894.

In total the party will host 990 activities, of which the vast majority (750) will be daytime and the rest (285) will take place at night. The workdays and vigils of laborable acts will end at noon at two o’clock, while Fridays and Saturdays may be extended until 3:30 p.m. Councilor Eloi Badia and the president of the Fundació Festa Major de Gràcia, Carla Carbonell, presented the program on Tuesday, both of which highlighted the “growth and rejuvenation” of the party.

The elaboration of the program in a participatory way began last May, with the premiere of a symbolic ‘viejo’ or traditional tent of a major festival in the gardens of Salvador Espriu (Jardinets de Gràcia). The other two entrance doors to the neighborhood will be in Gran de Gràcia, located at the confluence with the street Jesús and opposite the Fontana metro (L3) and made by students of the Massana School and the European Institute of Disseny. Both will be connected by a set of banners with drawings of children from the neighborhood schools.

Another novelty will be that the facade of the district, which was the town hall before its annexation to Barcelona, ​​will be decorated again for the party thanks to a mural made by the studio Reskate Arts & Crafts and curated by the entity Diffusor. The creation, with the blue colors and lilies of the coat of arms of Gràcia, honors the decoration of the streets, the engraving of the façades and festive aucas. It will be inaugurated with the proclamation and can be seen throughout the week.

The evolution of the party in these 200 years can be observed in detail with the exhibitions of historical photographs in the tent of the bicentennial and in the streets through QR codes scannable by mobile phones. Carbonell has also highlighted other special activities of the bicentennial, such as the opening bell ringing and the repetition of the concerts of the ‘Sirex’ and the ‘Mustang’ of the Major Festival of 1964 “to recover the spirit of the 60s and 70s” .

More cleaning and sustainability

Badia has announced that it has doubled the cleaning staff, there will be more public baths and it has agreed with the businesses of the streets to empty the wastebaskets to avoid the accumulation of waste in a party that is expected “large influx.” This year, visually impaired attendees will be able to access the program of events thanks to the audiodescriptions of the mobile application ‘Wheris’. The single-use plastic cups will be replaced by more than 150,000 reusable cups at one euro, which will make Gràcia the first major party in the Catalan capital to adopt this sustainable system.

The fountain most “culé”

In Canaletas, the legend says that “he who drinks of his water will return to Barcelona”

The fountain most “culé”

A destination almost obliged for tourists, the Canaletas fountain crosses thousands of people, located just at the beginning of the Ramblas, a few steps from Plaça de Catalunya. This modest but emblematic fountain-lantern treasures with a history that makes it one of the unavoidable sources for the tourist and the fan of Futbol Club Barcelona, when its successes allow it.

The source of Canaletas was built in XVIII century but its reaison for bein takes us to the implementation of Rec Comtal, a network of channels launched in the tenth century and operating for almost nine centuries, which was extended in the mid-nineteenth century to bring the water that arrived from the Montcada and Reixac dam. With the arrival of industrialization, the water of the canals became contaminated and the city opened some divergent channels to supply to the Ramblas of less contaminated water. They were called ‘Canaletas’.

The original source came from a deposit located in the Tower of San Severo of the old medieval wall, which supplied the area of the Rambla and the Raval, originally from the eighteenth century. In 1862 the old fountain disappeared with the demolition of the walls and in its place settled two provisional iron sources.

In 1888 the City Council of Barcelona agreed to replace it with another definitive source, a project commissioned to Pere Falqués formed by four sources that would be located in different places of the city. Subsequently it was extended to fourteen sources, awarded to Jaume Rodelles. For that reason, although the one of Canaletas was constructed in 1892, it counts on a good number of ‘twin sisters’ distributed by Barcelona.

Made of cast iron, the fountain has a circular base on which a cup-shaped structure rises with four faucets that pour the water over four circular stacks; On this glass rises a column crowned in turn by four lampposts. With the ornamental tracks on the table, nothing better than to trace a route in search of their ‘relatives’ that we will find, among other locations, in the Portal del Ángel, the main street of Gracia, the round of San Pablo, Or the Plaza de la Barceloneta, among others. In total, there are 17 identical sources.

Today it is celebrated for being scene of the festivities in honor to the victories of the Barça. A tradition that was forged when the followers of the azulgrana club were quoted at the gates of the sports newspaper La Rambla, which was in the habit of presenting the results of football matches using a blackboard. Disappeared in the late 1930s, it should be said that the newspaper was located just in front of the fountain, at number 13 of the Ramblas.

Tradition says that “he who drinks of his water will return to Barcelona.” That is why, by superstition, visitors who wish to return to the city do not hesitate to drink their water if they hope to comply with the saying, whose legend can be read inscribed on a plaque.

The first house built by Antoni Gaudí was the Casa Vicens in Barcelona (1883), ​​which will open to the public soon

An English estate was offering the home in 2007 for 35 million euros | The bank’s investor Hermitage of Barcelona which could be in Gràcia.

Barcelona wins a new Gaudí. Vicens house, across the street from Carolines (Gràcia), will become a house museum open to the public, which will join other iconic buildings like La Pedrera, Casa Batlló and Palau Güell, authentic pilgrimage centers to which each year millions of tourists come.

The building, so far not visited since it is a private home that has been passed from father to son since 1899 when it was acquired by Antonio Jover, grandfather of the current owners, has been bought by MoraBanc with will give a new public use. As confirmed to this newspaper fountains of the great Andorran bank, the operation is virtually closed and already working on the selection of an operator with experience in the management of future house-museum. “We are interested in the Barcelona brand and retrieve a landmark building in the city. We’re thrilled to offer the opportunity to visit Barcelona this building will be a cultural and tourist offer of the first order”, summarized Ivan Comerma La Vanguardia, Amura Capital, the investment company MoraBanc, through which the operation is being performed, the amount of which has not transpired so far.

The house is owned Vicens family Herreros Jover and was for sale at least since 2007, when a British realtor put ads in newspapers like The Wall Street Journal, Daily Telegraph and The Independent in which the property was being offered to groups of investors for 35 million euros. Yesterday you could still find on the internet website that Atadicion property, located in Castell d’Aro, a monograph devoted to the sale of Casa Vicens, “a masterpiece of world renown, a unique opportunity to own a property designed by the great Antoni Gaudí “. you can read in English, Russian, Arabic, Japanese and Chinese. Not a word in Castilian or Catalan.

Vicens, a modernist gem declared a Historic-Artistic Monument of National Interest and a World Heritage Site by Unesco, house still has no opening date. MoraBanc is also the largest investor group that showed interest in joining the project of a franchise Hermitage Museum in Barcelona, which suggests that the house Vicens could be chosen by the emblematic Russian Museum to the announced submission of its funds prior to the opening of its headquarters in the port of Barcelona. From the Andorran bank argue that while it is true that at the moment the possibility of scheduling exhibition is not contemplated, not rule that may be made in the future. That answer, for now, will have to wait.

The Casa Vicens was the first major commission of a young Antoni Gaudí i Cornet (1852-1926 ) . He arrived in 1883 , just five years after the conclusion of his studies at the Provincial School of Architecture of Barcelona (where certainly not stood out in his notes ) . It was projecting a summer villa on the outskirts of the city, in the streets of Gràcia Carolines for a singular client, the tile manufacturer Manuel Vicens i Montaner. That same year, 1883 , he was commissioned to house El Capricho in Comillas and start working in the atoning Sagrada Família, a project that will last for more than forty years. The Carolines Street also took his time. This culminated in 1888 and included a house and garden . In the latter , surrounding the building , was a waterfall and pond , but you lost the sale of a large part of the land. The house is covered with brick and glazed ceramics in which medieval and Arab influences appear . Abound lines and right angles, so scarce in the later work of the architect, but it is a very imaginative and with great concern for building ornamental elements . In 1899 Manuel Vicens widow sold the house to the family Jover , who has hitherto preserved in exquisite pampering .

Gaudí’s name is a magnet for tourism, which flock to Barcelona fascinated by a work around which bloom every day more and more businesses, more and more lucrative. Barcelona is now known worldwide as the city of Gaudi and modernism. Indesmayables, sights such as the Sagrada Família (3,233,526 visitors in 2012), La Pedrera (861,583), Casa Batlló (780,466), the Palau Güell (254,609) or Park Güell (more than eight million a year), icons that are entered in the XXI century exercise their power of attraction for hundreds of thousands of tourists to the point that the legacy Gaudi, reviled for so long, they become a powerful economic engine for the city. Last November eleven architect building owners signed the Declaration of Mataró to protect and promote their work.
