Warehouse of Magí Figueres i Galofré

The warehouse of Magí Figueres i Galofré, also known as Cal Figueras de Manlleu, stands in the area of urban expansion formed alongside the road to Sant Martí Sarroca, opened in 1881. It is a three-bay building sharing party walls, with a ground floor and flat roof terrace, of symmetrical composition repeating the same module three times; its formal features place it in the Modernista style, which together with eclecticism dominates this interesting urban stretch. It was designed by the architect Santiago Güell, who submitted the project to the town council on 10 March 1904 and obtained approval on 1 June; it is this architect's first Modernista work. Protected as a Bien Cultural de Interés Local (local-level cultural heritage protection status).
