This weekend, coinciding with the final stretch of Temps de Flors, Montjuïc Castle in Girona received a floral offering. It was brought by the residents of this neighborhood, situated on a hill at the northern entrance of the city, far from the hustle and bustle of the center. They were not, however, to decorate and make it look nice, but rather an act of protest due to the poor condition of the fortress, as, although it is considered a cultural asset of national interest (BCIN), it is in a ruinous state: the stones are crumbling, weeds are growing, it is full of graffiti and dirt. Residents barely step foot there and it has become a meeting point for anti-social individuals.

With an initial investment of 6.7 million euros in 2026, Barcelona City Council will launch a plan that seeks to reclaim "the city's democratic, social, and feminist tradition." To this end, it has presented a roadmap that will be rolled out until 2030 and which, among other things, foresees the creation of the Model Memorial Center, where the political repression, social conflict, penal control, and democratic struggles of the 20th century will be explained. It is, therefore, a new Center for the Interpretation of Terrorism, which will primarily focus on the Hipercor (1987) and La Rambla (2017) attacks, at the "Montjuïc Castle; and the Center for the Interpretation of Labor in Barcelona, in the old Fabra i Coats factory.
