The Association for the Promotion of the Francesca Bonnemaison Women's Cultural Centre (la Bonne), a meeting, exchange, and creation space for feminist cultural projects that brings together more than a hundred women's collectives, has been fighting with the Diputació de Barcelona for over ten years to continue in the Francesca Bonnemaison building, on Sant Pere Més Baix street in Barcelona. The latest step has been to formally request the reversal of the property from the president of the Diputació, Lluïsa Moret, based on the democratic memory law. The argument is that in 1941, in the midst of the post-war context, a deed of assignment was signed to the Diputació which the association calls a "true spoliation". it has been more than ten years that it has been battling with the Barcelona Provincial CouncilFrancesca Bonnemaison (1872-1949) was a right-wing, Catholic woman from a good family who did something very audacious that still endures today: she created Europe's first women's library, the Popular Library for Women, in 1909. She offered women a place to train, and at that time it was so exceptional that, when the Institute of Culture and Popular Library for Women opened on Sant Pere Més Baix street, the police had to go there because the men, unaccustomed to the presence of women in public spaces, were becoming agitated. The Popular Library for Women was born in the upper cloisters of Santa Anna and was inaugurated on March 28, 1909. Since Bonnemaison had very good relations and knew the Barcelona oligarchy, she secured enough funding to move, in 1910, to number 12 Elisabets street, and in 1920 she acquired a larger premises in Sant Pere Més Baix. From 1922 onwards, the Institute of Culture and Popular Library for Women was located there. Even today, the institution occupies this space, which is the old Casa Cordellas mansion.
