Until the 1960s, the entrance to La Pegaso park on Carrer Gran de la Sagrera used to be the old lorry factory’s main gate. Now it is the way into a park which, because of its history, characteristics and amenities, is one of Sant Andreu’s most emblematic green areas. There is also an accessible route providing access to the whole park.

History
This green area is located on the site of the former ENASA (Empresa Nacional de Autocamiones) lorry factory, between the old historic town centres of Sant Andreu and La Sagrera. The park’s name comes from the popular Pegaso lorries, which were manufactured in the factory. The park, which was opened in 1986, was designed by the architects Enric Batlle and Joan Roig.

Art and Architecture
The figure of Pegasus, the winged horse that was ENASA’s emblem for many years, can be seen in the paving of a small circular square at one end of the park. Remnants of the old lorry factory include its main gate, which is now the park’s main entrance, and the office building, now used for neighbourhood amenities. It is an example of mid-20th century industrial architecture.
The pond, which is the park’s central and most outstanding feature, was completely renovated in 2011. The restoration work corrected leaking and drainage problems that originated in 2008, when the pond was drained as part of measures enforced to combat the drought. The pond’s duct has been waterproofed, and new machinery for circulating the water has been installed. The installations have been prepared for a future connection to the La Sagrera phreatic water network, which is currently under development. The pond’s water jets have been renewed and low-energy lighting has been installed. And in addition to all these improvements, the machinery is now operated using a remote-control system.
