The Eucharistic legacy
The origin to the Congrés district stems from to the XXXV International Eucharistic Congress that took place in Barcelona in 1952. This event occurred in the middle of the Franco years and it was organized by Archbishop Gregorio Modrego and over 80 countries participated. The new district was christened with the name of Congrés, in memory of that religious event and the project’s promoters.
