Countdown for the exchange: 6 days!

ESCOLA MASSANA, OUR SCHOOL

 Our school is placed in the centre of Barcelona, for many young people, the best part of the city and were all tourists are. The school is half way between Las Ramblas, the most famous boulevard,  and La Rambla del Raval, one of the oldest neighbourhoods in town.


Escola Massana School’s building is really old, so you will be able to appreciate the wonderful architecture from many centuries ago. Before being a school it was a hospital, actually it was the hospital where it is said Gaudi died, but you wouldn't say it because it really looks like an arts school.

Most of the school walls are full of amazing graffiti, teachers don't really allow doing graffiti on the school walls but the fact is that you never get bored walking around our school, not just for the graffiti of course, there are always fantastic art exhibitions in some special areas  of the school!


In our school there are many types of workshops classrooms where you can learn many different arts and its techniques: the painting classroom (probably the biggest and nicest one as it is an old Gothic gallery from the old hospital), the sculpture workshop, the jewellery and enamel workshops (which work tables are the oldest ones in the school), etc.


We are really sure you will like our school and we hope you love it as we do!
