La Garriga Visitor Center is the tourist Information point of La Garriga and the Montseny Natural Park, from where we offer all the information on the tourist resources and services of the municipality and its surroundings. It is the place where all the itineraries and visits to get to know La Garriga and its stories, come from.
It is the place to stop to find out about all the activities we offer and discover (or rediscover) La Garriga.
OLD LAUNDRY ROOM
The building was built in the 1930s, during the Second Spanish Republic, by the architect Manuel J. Raspall. It is one of the few Art Deco buildings, and it was designed as a municipal laundry, where women came to wash clothes with thermal water!
It later became part of the municipal slaughterhouse complex, and later functioned as a warehouse. It was not until 2011 that the rehabilitation could be inaugurated. Since then, it has been the La Garriga Visitor Center.
