The Can Sert women workers’ shelter is noted for the fan palms which give it an extraordinary vegetable monumentality.

  • Cultural heritage

An old 18th century farmhouse surrounded by a large extension of farmland, which was renovated as a summer residence by the Sert family, well-known industrialists from Barcelona. They left it to the nuns so that they could take in retired women with no means who had worked in their carpet factory. Today it is a home; the house of the canon, the home’s director, was added at the end of the last century.
