Terrassa is an unmissable destination for lovers of architecture and culture. Among its wealth of heritage, it’s worth highlighting the Modernist masterpieces such as Vapor Aymerich, Amat i Jover —home to the Science and Technical Museum of Catalonia—, the Masia Freixa and the Casa Alegre de Sagrera.
