Parc de L’Espanya Industrial is an urban park in Barcelona’s Sants-Montjuïc district that was created on the site of former industrial buildings. The park combines landscaping with industrial architectural elements.

The park includes paved plazas, water features and sculptural elements that reference the site’s industrial past, and it functions as a recreational space for local residents. It is often used for walking, informal sports and family visits rather than large-scale tourist itineraries.

The area was redeveloped from 20th-century industrial use into a public park during urban regeneration efforts in the late 20th century. The design intentionally retains and reinterprets industrial forms as part of the park’s character.

Set in the Sants-Montjuïc district of Barcelona, the park lies within the city’s built-up area and is accessible from surrounding neighbourhoods and transit connections.

• Design note: Features industrial-era design elements and water features, making it a notable example of late 20th-century urban park regeneration in Barcelona.
• Access: Located within Barcelona’s Sants-Montjuïc district, it is easily accessible from nearby transport hubs and urban neighbourhoods.

Located in the Sants-Montjuïc district of Barcelona, the park is a 10-15 minute walk from Plaça d’Espanya. Nearest metro: Espanya (L1, L3) or Poble Sec (L2) with short bus links (V7, 165). The park spans Avinguda de la Riera Blanca and Carrer de la Indústria.

• Enter from Avinguda de la Riera Blanca / Carrer de la Indústria to avoid the busiest entrance near Plaça d'Espanya.
• Look for the giant iron sculpture 'Torre de la Fusta' and the long concrete slides-bring coins for the foot-operated water fountain mechanism nearby.
• Visit late afternoon during summer to see local skateboarders and to catch the park's layered, industrial light.
