Among girdles and corsets
Emili Singuerlín i Ros was born in Barcelona in 1881 of Alsatian father and Catalan mother and he was a famous corset-maker of the city. Around 1920, due to a bronchitis that affected his health, he decided to buy some lands in this area for their dry and healthy weather. They were mainly lands of fields, pine groves and vineyards and he set up a beautiful tower and a girdles’ factory, very fashionable in that age. Emili Singuerlín was two times councilman of the city council and he was very esteemed by the residents of the area, and probably that’s why today a whole district has his name.
