The building now occupied by the Vedrunes de Gràcia used to house and old people’s home. After numerous alterations over the years, it now is a modern, spacious centre.

Cultural heritage

Pleated skirts and children hurrying into the classrooms. Les Vedrunes has been educating the neighbourhood’s children since 1862.
The present state-assisted school occupies Bernat Pijoan’s historicist-style building. It incorporates ornamentation that gives away its Christian origins such as the stepped roof with the coat of arms and the cross or, as if it were a temple, the doorway with a round arch on which it reads: Colegio de San José. Dirigido por las Hermanas Carmelitas de la Caridad.
