Lluis, I definitely have seen these nice images before. Maybe something 
went wrong with the emails or something at the time?

Barcelona from the top

The bunkers of Carmel is a viewpoint from which you can see the whole 
city of Barcelona (360º city view). It is located at the top of Turó de 
la Rovira in the Carmel neighborhood with a height of 262 meters. During 
the Spanish Civil War there was an antiaircraft warfare. And later one 
of the last shanty towns was established. Despite being popularly known 
as Bunkers, there has never been any bunker at the top of the Turó de la 
Rovira, only an antiaircraft warfare and its facilities.During the years 
prior to the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games, flats were granted to the 
inhabitants of the barracks (the "green flats" in Can Baró). And all the 
shanties were overthrown, leaving the Turó de la Rovira abandoned.
The habitants of the nearby neighborhoods enjoyed the little-known views 
of the whole city of Barcelona. But year after year the bunkers became 
well known and nowadays it is one of the best Barcelona viewpoints. 
Today it is closed on the evening to avoid parties of young people and a 
lot of noise.
