Description

The map of the town’s new school, dated 1926 and drawn on starched and satined fabric, is a technical document that reflects the importance given to public education in the context of social and urban progress in Catalonia. This piece allows you to know in detail the organization of school spaces and the desire to create healthy, functional learning environments adapted to the new pedagogical currents. The document is part of the themes of urban planning, collective services and education, and shows how the construction of schools was a priority in Catalonia in the 1920s, in line with the European ideals of modernization and equal opportunities.
