Don Julio Muñoz Ramonet goes out partying - Leisure spaces in post-war Barcelona

Tuesday June 4 — 20 h

Rafa Burgos

Conference

The biography of the controversial businessman Julio Muñoz Ramonet is extremely juicy. In parallel with the creation of his industrial empire, the parties at the Palau on Muntaner Street were followed by selected outings to mythical venues of the post-war era such as the Casa Llibre (where he met the malaguanyada prostitute Carmen Broto), the Monterrey, the Cortijo or the Parrilla del Ritz. Apart from the private ones that, in the company of his brother, he organized in the building on Passeig de Gràcia. An excuse that will help us remember how and where the economic and political elite of post-war Barcelona had fun. Spaces for leisure and fun that have become part of the sentimental history of the city of Barcelona.

Yoga in the garden

Tuesday July 2 — 19 h

Open class

We do yoga to feel better, to lighten the burden of responsibilities, to dampen the undesirable effects of a routine job or a sedentary life. With the practice of yoga we achieve a more responsible management of our own health, we manage a dynamic that becomes autonomous and applies to everyday life.

Yoga classes, with their postures and their silences, tell us about ourselves, our body tension map, our unbalanced emotionality or our mental agitation. They are a mirror in which to recognize ourselves to start the inner recomposition.

Come with your girlfriend to enjoy a yoga class in the garden, by the professionals of the highly specialized multidisciplinary physiotherapy and osteopathy center hOlistk.

Free entry without prior reservation until capacity is reached.
