Entramos en el Monestir de Valldonzella: el único convento modernista de Bcn

Entramos en el Monestir de Valldonzella: el único convento modernista de Bcn

Sun, Sep 27, 3:30 PM
From Descubridores de Barcelona y Catalunya
4.5

¡VISITA EXCLUSIVA! La comunidad de **monjas cistercienses** de Valldonzella **nos abre sus puertas para mostrar su monasterio modernista**. Además, lo haremos **durante el atardecer**, para poder contemplar la luz de la tarde en el precioso claustro y vidrieras modernistas de la iglesia. En esta ocasión, hemos conseguido que la congregación nos tenga preparada una visita al **único recinto monástico modernista** existente en Catalunya. Accederemos pues, a un recinto en el que en muy pocas ocasiones personas ajenas a la comunidad tienen acceso y pueden disfrutar de la belleza de **su claustro** o iglesia. Situado en la zona de la Bonanova, y muy cerca de Collserola, el actual edificio es obra del arquitecto Bernardí Martorrell i Puig, en el estilo más moderno de la época, el actualmente llamado “modernismo catalán”. Es un estilo con reminiscencias del arte medieval, y en su interior, podremos observar algunas pinturas medievales que guarda la comunidad. También, nos explicarán **anécdotas y curiosidades de la historia del monasterio** y de las vicisitudes de la comunidad en el marco de la historia de Barcelona de los últimos siglos. También hablaremos de cómo es hoy en día la vida en un convento de monjas y a qué actividades benéficas se dedican. Y es que en el precioso recinto, todavía vive una comunidad de monjas dedicada a la oración, el silencio, y el trabajo; que ha sido testimonio de la historia de nuestra ciudad. Os proponemos pues, una visita muy peculiar, única, y que pretende descubrir una joya del arte modernista prácticamente desconocida. ¡Anímate y siéntete un verdadero descubridor/a de Barcelona! Y como siempre, **acompañamiento y explicaciones de un guía licenciado en historia por la UB**. Éste es el **PLAN**: 1. Encuentro en FGC de Av. Tibidabo, en la Plaça Kennedy. 2. Desplazamiento a pie hasta el monasterio (30 minutos aprox). 3. Visita guiada al monasterio de Valldonzella. 4. Continuamos el paseo hasta la calle Mandri, por la Bonanova, donde podremos ir a tomar bravas o un aperitivo en el mítico Bar Mandri. PRECIO: 18 euros (incluye: organización, guía desde el inicio de la actividad, visita y entrada al interior del monasterio)

Barcelona SaaS Founders Meetup

Barcelona SaaS Founders Meetup

Tue, Sep 29, 4:30 PM
From Barcelona SaaS Founders Circle

**Building a SaaS business in Barcelona? Come and meet other founders who are focused on scaling a SaaS in 2026.** This is the first gathering of Barcelona SaaS Founders Circle: an exclusive evening for SaaS founders and cofounders to get to know each other, compare notes and build useful relationships. No panels, or pitch competitions...We'll have a light structure to get the conversations started, followed by time to connect properly. **Who it is for** Founders and cofounders building or running a SaaS product—from actively building and finding first customers to growing an established business. Our core focus is B2B SaaS, but other SaaS founders are welcome when the conversations are relevant. This is not a general business-services networking event. **What to expect** **18:30-18:45:** Arrive, settle in and meet a few people. **18:45-19:05:** A short welcome and introductions in pairs or small groups. **19:05-20:10:** Open conversation with light prompts / suggested topics. **20:10-20:15:** Wrap up and what's next. You can talk about finding customers, product decisions, pricing, hiring, founder-led sales - or simply what building your business is like right now. **The details** Date: **September 29** Time: **18:30–20:15, Barcelona local time** Venue: La Textil Collective (Carrer de Casp, 33B, 08010) Language: **English** Price: **Free to attend; please support La Textil by purchasing a drink or light bite.** Places: **20 founder attendees** **Coming on your own?** Perfectly fine. I will be there to welcome you and introduce you to people. You do not need to arrive knowing anyone. **A few shared expectations** Be generous with your experience, make room for others, and ask before giving advice. Introduce your product without turning the evening into a sales pitch. **Your host** I’m Michael Cummins, and I've worked in the world of SaaS for the last 15 years, at multiple Unicorns - from pre-seed through acquisitions and IPO's. I’m creating this group to build a useful local founder community that's focused on growth. Please RSVP only when you expect to attend. Plans change — just update your RSVP promptly so someone else can use the place. **See you there.**
