Granting of the city title to Terrassa

Historical milestone · Terrassa, Vallès Occidental, Barcelona

Image of Terrassa, not of the place itself.

Alfonso XII granted Terrassa the title of city in 1877, at the height of the take-off of its wool industry. The steam mills, the warehouses and the manufacturers' houses reordered the urban fabric and left the group of modernist industrial architecture that is walked today.
