Abstract
The Vallcarca cement factory was opened just outside Sitges, approximately 40 km south of Barcelona, in 1903. Nestled on the Mediterranean coast at the foot of the Garraf limestone massif, it was accessible by road, sea, and rail. Vallcarca went on to become one of the most dynamic cement factories in Spain, with more than 2,000 workers and their families living in the surrounding area. In total, at its peak, the area had a population of 5,500 people.
