Through a programme of exhibitions, meetings for reflection, workshops, talks and lectures, urban itineraries, music, films, children’s activities and more, the public are invited to take part in the celebrations to mark the centenary.

The decree to incorporate Sarrià into the city, dated 4 November 1921, culminated the process to configure Barcelona in its contemporary form. This process began in April 1897 with the addition of a series of municipalities on the Barcelona plain: Sants, Les Corts, Sant Gervasi de Cassoles, Gràcia, Sant Andreu de Palomar and Sant Martí de Provençals. Horta was added in 1904. The municipality of Sarrià had actually grown thanks to the addition of other territories such as Vallvidrera (1890) and part of Santa Creu d’Olorda (1916). This process to modernise the city and the old centre of Sarrià consolidated the birth of a specifically urban culture and almost definitively established the city’s boundaries as we know them today. There’s no doubt that without Sarrià, Barcelona would not be the city it is.

The programme of activities to mark the centenary was possible thanks to the participation of associations and the network of public cultural facilities in the district of Sarrià – Sant Gervasi, as well as leading institutions in the city.
