Chauffeur Service in Font de la Guatlla

La Font de la Guatlla is a small neighborhood of Sants-Montjuïc, 29.7 hectares with 10,239 residents in 2021. It lies at the foot of Montjuïc, on the mountain's north-west slope, between the hill and the stretch of Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes that runs from Plaça d'Espanya to Plaça de Cerdà. Its neighbors are Hostafrancs, La Bordeta, La Marina de Port and El Poble-sec.

The name comes from a spring, the Font de la Guatlla, at the end of Carrer del Rabí Rubèn, where the Butsems works made paving and artificial stone. While the 1929 International Exhibition was being built, the factory employed about a thousand people, and many of them put up small houses on the hill. Those low houses with gardens still fill the part nearest the mountain, on streets named after flowers such as Dàlia, Begònia and Crisantem, a trace of the plan for a garden city, while taller blocks stand nearer Gran Via. Josep Puig i Cadafalch's Casaramona textile factory, opened in 1913 and used by the police until 1992, became CaixaForum Barcelona in 2002.

Plaça d'Espanya, with the Fira's Montjuïc venue on its far side, marks one end of the neighborhood, and Plaça de Cerdà, close to the L'Hospitalet boundary, the other. A chauffeur from La Font de la Guatlla can take you to a fair, the airport, the port or another city: give the street, up on the hill or down by Gran Via, and the time you need.
