Far from the crowded tourist hotsposts, this is the ultimate place to watch the sunset in Barcelona.

#### A Window into Barcelona's Past

The Bunkers del Carmel aren't just a viewpoint—they’re a piece of living history. Built during the Spanish Civil War in the late 1930s, these anti-aircraft bunkers formed part of Barcelona’s defense system against aerial bombings. Their strategic location provided clear visibility of the entire city, maximizing protection.

After the war, the bunkers and surrounding hill became home to a shantytown community, where many families lived in humble, self-built houses until the 1990s. This complex past is part of what makes the site so compelling: it tells a layered story of war, resilience, survival, and urban transformation.
