Cultural heritage
Modernisme in Sant Andreu
Can Mazantini’s three Modernista buildings are one of the largest Modernista edifices preserved in Sant Andreu. Two of the three blocks have been restored. They are the ones that look onto Carrer de Coroleu and shine as if brand new. The facade’s intense green and faded ashlars have been recovered and its balconies and wrought-iron window grills restored. By contrast, the building on the corner with Carrer de Concepció Arenal retains its aged look acquired over the years.
A must-visit
These are three-storey buildings. The ground floor has a stone facade and the green finish starts on the main floor, from which some enormous balconies protrude. The architectural complex continues at the chamfer with Carrer de Concepció Arenal. There, the balconies curve over a blind wall crowned with a Baroque-style coat of arms in relief. Although the interior is not open to the public, because the buildings are divided into private flats, it is still worthwhile to take a good look at the outside.
