Parc de l'Espanya Industrial, Urban park in Sants-Montjuïc, Spain

The park extends over 4.6 hectares of land near Sants railway station, featuring an artificial lake surrounded by white steps and nine tall lighthouse-like towers.

The land previously contained La España Industrial textile mill until the 1970s, when community movements successfully prevented housing development and secured the space for public use.

Several sculptures from the 1929 International Exhibition, including Neptune by Manuel Fuxà and Venus by José Pérez Peresejo, stand throughout the green spaces.

The park remains open from 10 AM until midnight on weekdays and until 11 PM on weekends, offering basketball courts, ping-pong tables, and children play areas.

A 32-meter-wide metal dragon sculpture by Andrés Nagel functions as both an art installation and a slide for children visiting the park.
