Besòs Mar

The last stretch of the River Besòs

The neighbourhood of Besòs is situated on the eastern point of the city, bordering with Sant Adrià del Besòs and the sea. In 1959, the Patronat Municipal de l’Habitadge (Municipal Housing Board) initiated the construction of 5.000 homes to house, among others, the neighbours of Somorrostro, the shanty town that had mushroomed on the beaches of the Barceloneta and Poblenou that disappeared for good in the 70s.

The Besòs River runs only 53 km, from its source in the Vallès Oriental region to its mouth in Sant Adrià del Besòs. Maybe that’s why this is the only municipality that includes Besòs in its name …
