Arreplegats de la Zona Universitària

Arreplegats de la Zona Universitària, University human towers group near University Zone, Barcelona, Spain

The Arreplegats de la Zona Universitària are a university colla castellera based in the Zona Universitària of Barcelona's Les Corts district, where UPC and UB faculties are concentrated. Founded in 1995, its members wear green shirts, a colour taken from Barcelona metro line 3, which has a station in the neighbourhood.

The group was founded in 1995 when university students began to revive interest in traditional Catalan practices. It started as a way to keep these customs alive within an academic community.

The green shirts come from the colour of Barcelona metro line 3, which stops at Zona Universitària. The colla's name, Arreplegats, means 'those who gather' or 'collectors'. Members are university students from the UPC and UB campuses in the area.

The colla is based in the Zona Universitària, the Les Corts sector holding UPC and UB faculties. Its green shirt takes the colour of Barcelona metro line 3, which stops at Zona Universitària station. The group was founded in 1995.

In May 2009, at the Diada de la Colla, the group dismantled two towers never before achieved by a university colla in the same performance: the 3 de 7 raised from below and the 4 de 8. The 4 de 8 was the first eight-storey castle ever completed by a university group, and possibly the first built only by adults.
