Passeig
de Manuel Girona, 55-61
Barcelona
An undulating gate and wall
Enclosing
wall and access door to the Miralles estate, located to the
north of Barcelona. Only a part of the wall, 36 meters long
and finished with a metal mesh grille, remains, while the
door, which is large with the shape of an inverted lobular
arch covered by a porch and a cross, has been entirely conserved.
The
owner of the estate was his friend Hermenegild Miralles i
Anglès, the printer who more than once allowed the architect
to use his enormous printing presses to test the strength
of the stone columns that he used in some of his works.
