Square of the pegaso, Public park in La Sagrera, Barcelona, Spain.
The Pegaso square is a park in La Sagrera, Barcelona, spanning 3.65 hectares with distinct areas for different activities. It features a sinuous pond crossed by bridges, sports courts, and children's playgrounds throughout the grounds.
The park opened in 1986 on the former grounds of the ENASA factory, where Pegaso trucks were produced. The original factory entrance gate and office building remain on the site, marking its industrial roots.
The plaza displays a representation of Pegasus, the winged horse, as a tribute to the neighborhood's industrial past. This sculpture stands at the center and tells the story of an area once shaped by factory workers and manufacturing life.
The park is accessible year-round with wide, level paths that are easy to walk. Visitors should note that opening hours vary by season, with shorter hours in winter and extended hours in summer.
The park features a Japanese-inspired bridge that crosses over the water channel and connects different sections. From the bridge and surrounding vegetation, visitors can pause at quiet observation points to take in the landscape.
