Bruch barracks, Military barracks in Pedralbes, Barcelona, Spain.
The Bruch barracks features historicist architecture with traditional design elements, including classical forms and detailed craftsmanship throughout its structure.
During the National Uprising of 1936, rebel troops left these barracks and moved through Avinguda Diagonal to enter Barcelona's streets with barricades.
The building holds status as a Cultural Asset within Catalonia's heritage, representing military architectural traditions and the evolution of Barcelona's urban development.
Located at coordinates 41.386453, 2.110061 on Avinguda Exèrcit, the barracks continue to house infantry units of the Spanish army.
Since 2008, local governments have requested the Ministry of Defence to transfer the barracks back to municipal control for community purposes.
