De l'hospital d'Infecciosos al Parc de Salut Mar

Author/s: Daniel Venteo

This book explores the relationship between Barcelona and one of the city’s most emblematic and cherished institutions: Hospital del Mar. The hospital was founded in 1914 as a public hospital for infectious diseases as a result of a devastating typhus epidemic and has gradually evolved into the modern health institution it is today. In the 21st century Hospital del Mar is an example both for its health care and its teaching and research. Its first one hundred years of history are also proof of how Barcelona has made its public health service a hallmark of the city.
